What is the scientific name of the black-and-yellow argiope spider?

'Argiope aurantia' is the binomial, Latin or scientific name of the black-and-yellow argiope spider. It's thought that the distinct body markings and colors are intended to mislead potential predators into thinking they're dealing with wasps. But this spider has three very effective defenses and offenses of its own. It builds a clean, orderly but very sticky web. It has poison in its fangs. It immobilizes prey already incapacitated by the first two defenses, by quickly surrounding and smothering them in silk, for leisurely eating afterwards.
