Argiope is the most common one and also quite variable in colors and markings. This makes the ID sometimes not really easier...

Thanks Bayucca (again) for the ID and Atul thanks for your comment

Thanks Karen i know. I was almost sure it's a Silver Argiope but not sure becuase of the colors (the most i've seen are black, white or silver), but in the link Bayucca gave me i saw some of this buddies in red (new for me).

Very nice Nacho! This is a very distinctive spider & I think someone in the community will be able to provide an exact ID for it if you remove the name from the scientific name field & tick the please help me to ID this box.
