 Wagneriana tauricornis (?) (Orbweaver (nonspecific)). | The web span about 1-1.5 m between a small ligustrum and some other plant at a height of 1 m. Most of the time the large spider had its legs curled up and looked like a small leaf or dirt. I'll post more information once I am sure about the identification.
