Enoplognatha ovata, the common candy-striped spider, is a species of spider belonging to the family Theridiidae. Their scientific name derives from the latin word 'ovatus' which means egg-shaped.[1] Despite its small size, this is a formidable predator which can prey on insects many times its size.
