Walckenaer's hackled orb weaver (Uloborus walckenaerius) in the family Uloboridae, which is the only non-venomous spider family in the world. Instead of using venom, they crush their prey in silk. The prey in this case is a house fly that was the same size as the spider.

This is the dorsal view of a female Featherlegged Orb-weaver spider. I found her under the stairs at my home.She is nothing but a piece of dry leaf from a distance. In fact the colors and patterns on her was not visible to the eye since she was in a very dark corner. I was utterly shocked to see the patterns and textures on her through the camera. :-)Her abdomen had bulged up considerably which I thought was normal for the species until I found her by the egg case this morning. :-DDorsal view and egg case pictures here: This spider belongs to a family of non-venomous spiders. They lack of venom glands and they kill their prey by crushing with over 140 metres of thread!![wiki]Size: 1 cm approx
Summary[edit] Description: English: Triangle-web Spider - Hyptiotes cavatus, Julie Metz Wetlands, Woodbridge, Virginia. These are interesting spiders. According to "Common Spiders of North America", the family to which this spider belongs (Uloboridae) are unusual because they don't have venom glands and therefore don't use poison to subdue their prey. Instead, they wrap the prey in a lot of silk, and don't bite until they are ready to eat. This spider is hunting - it is holding its web taut with its front legs. There is a loop of slack line above the spider's back legs. When prey strikes the web, the spider will release the web so that it collapses, snaring the prey. Date: 30 September 2014, 05:29:19.
