Thorax
Based on your description, the spider you found in central Illinois is likely a female Marbled Orbweaver spider (Araneus marmoreus). These spiders are a reddish-brown color with distinctive striped legs and a red dot on their thorax. The shape of the thorax resembling an acorn is a characteristic feature of this species. They are not harmful to humans and are beneficial for controlling insect populations.
