typical Araneidae.
Maybe Araneus sp. I never saw an Araneus with rippled abdomen. :)

To me, it resembles Araneus angulatus (compare http://www.nickss...ulatus.htm), provided that the abdomen has two angular tubercles ("shoulder protuberances".) They should be on the edges of the dark transversal zone but are not very clearly visible in the photo.

Many thanks Sundew and Jorge.
