Rear end of a tiny Orb-Weaver Spider

This is the rear end of a tiny Orb-Weaver Spider (Araneus, Araneidae) - probably Araneus bispinosus or Araneus montereyensis, see this photo for more info. It's under a leaf of Coast Live Oak (Quercus agrifolia, Fagaceae), which seems to be a favorite place of theirs. This spider is tiny - about 645 pixels across in this 1:1 macro shots, which comes to 2.5 mm, about 1/10 inch. (See here for how I figured.) These spiders have humps on their back which become the points in my photo. This certainly counts as a "butt shot" - so HBBBT! (San Marcos Pass, 11 March 2018)
