The Zebra spider, Salticus scenicus, is known as such because of its black and white striped body. It is a common jumping spider.
One possibility is the common jumping spider, which has a black body and white rings around its legs. Its scientific name is phidippus audax.
I think I may have seen a similar spider today. The "butt" of the spider was quite large, burnt orange color with white spots on the top. I have never seen the spider before but I think I found a picture of it online. I haven't found the name of it yet. I'll let you know when I find out what it was. I may have found the spider you saw. The one I saw is called a shamrock orb weaver. Check out the pic on spiderzrule.com under the link Common US Spiders on the home page.
Have seen a very small spider with 4 white dots and 1 red dot. Not a red back. Ta ~Snaff

The white crab spider is an example of a white spider.Specifically, the spider in question exhibits white and translucent colors. It has the scientific name Thomisus spectabilis (literally, "sting spectacular"). It also may be called white flower spider since it ambushes nectar-seeking insects.
Loxosceles reclusa Hope it helped. :)
The name of a six-legged bug with a stinger on it and it is tan brown in color could be a spider cricket. Spider crickets are fond of caves, forests, burrows and cellars.
either its a new spider species, or its just a make believe spider!!
red cross got it's name from a swiss flag. the cross was red and the background was white.
