What is a "black and gold garden spider"?

A black and gold garden is a species of orb-weaving spider characterized by its large size, distinct black and yellow markings, and intricate circular webs. It is commonly found in gardens and meadows, where it patiently waits for prey to become ensnared in its web. The female of the species is larger and more striking in appearance than the male, and it is known for its ability to produce silk with a distinct zigzag pattern, often referred to as a "stabilimentum." The black and gold garden spider is harmless to humans and plays an important role in controlling insect populations.
