Absolutely lovely, congratulations! Beats
Argiope bruennichi that I admire on the dry meadow in front of our institute every day. Is
E. niger a synonym or another species?
Go on that lucky,
Sundew

Yes, Eresus niger is now synonym of Eresus cinnabarinus. E. sandaliatus is another species and there are two more species in Iberian peninsula, I think. But I can't distinguish.
Congratulations Jorge, I never have seen these spectacular spiders.
