Out here where I live we have them all over too, and when I was younger I was told they were called Cat Face spiders due to the markings on the abdomen and the shape of the abdomen when you look at it from above with the head pointing up. I loves em. I used to make a game of feeding ants to them when I was in grade school. I was prity much an outcast for the most part. hehe.

We have hundreds of these in my garden, they begin life as a tight, explosive web of tiny yellow pinhead youngsters and by autumn they are big, fat and heavy..........

Common but beautiful. I have some photos of it as well, I didn't know its name in latin though.
