Hello Fascinating Insect Lover..
To be honest, I have never seen this spider before. In fact, when I first encountered her, I thought she was a ladybug. But when I approached him, I saw that his legs were like spiders. Could this be a spider?
And my confusion was answered when I approached him and wanted to take his photo. He started to feel a little scared and tried to knock himself over with his net from where he had originally taken cover.
Even though I was sure that he was a spider, he was very foreign to me. However, I am trying to detect it. As for my search results, I think he is Bolas Spider.
A bolas spider is a member of the orb-weaver spider (family Araneidae) that, instead of spinning a typical orb web, hunts by using one or more sticky "capture blobs" on the end of a silk line, known as a "bolas". By swinging the bolas at flying male moths or moth flies nearby, the spider may snag its prey rather like a fisherman snagging a fish on a hook. Because of this, they are also called angling or fishing spiders (although the remotely related genus Dolomedes is also called a fishing spider). The prey is lured to the spider by the production of up to three sex pheromone-analogues. Wikipedia
