Probably Argiope bruennichi

Ronald Losure replied to Reginhart:

I am pretty sure it is Argiope aurantia. Definitely not A. bruennichi, which is found in Europe and Asia. Thanks for your comment, Reginhart.

Thanks, Keith. There are many species of Argiope, but only a few in North America. This species is rather common here.
