It had a black body, about 4 green stripes going from top to botom, a large white dot(lower back) with a red cross(maybe dot, it was small marking) in the middle of it and an orange dot(on it's butt) below the white one. It was a little bigger then a nickle including it's legs. I saw it on a door jam in california, the building had trees and dry grass all around it.

Way to small to be a tranchula.

Seems to be a breed spider. Anyway, I got an dea - just name give it a new name according to your choice. Only if without the green stripes, I could have suggested "Domino" as its name. just having some fun ok.♥(Sorry I could not give appropriate answer to your question.)

I have just found a nest, in my garden, of what appears to be 100's of little yellow and black spiders newly hatched...Never seen them before in my life.... Being a bit worried (Yellow and Black is often natures warning sign) I have done a number of searches... After trawling the net it appears it maybe be a type of Argiope (black and yellow garden spider) however that is a US spider and I am living in the UK... Further searching suggests their is a 'Wasp Spider' which is found in Contienial Europe and sometimes the South Coast of England... Which is still a mystery as I live in the Midlands(England - UK) which is miles from the any coast let only the South Coast.... Should I be charging people to come and visit my Garden to see this rare site or is there another type of spider out here? They are not harmful to humans are they I trust??? - my mum is very anxiouis!!! Damon

Sounds like it could be an orb weaver, a jumping spider, a crab spider, or a green lynx, but I attached a link with photos of CA spiders.
