Possibly nursery web (Pisauridae) and found in Virginia. She carries her egg sac in the front...
This wolf spider (Lycosidae) is rear loading. I'm guessing she spins a sort of tow rope with her spinnerets.
I think this is a future butterfly in the Tanaecia genus (part of the huge Nymphalidae family). A very cool chrysalis that I found in the Taman Negara forest.
