Hi Brendan,

This is the thread <Click here>

Thanks for reminding me. His great saying was for me. Now let me refresh your own memory Martin.

all the best,

PS.: Is the one on the first photo a male or female? Where do they come from / from whom did you get them?

indeed and that's why I have opened this thread, to show exactly this! And I bet most people wouldn't even get close to the genus (probably only by accident) of the species shown above! =;-)

sorry, couldn't resist!

Hard to tell from a photograph ( ;) ) it could resemble any number of species but I'll toss out a few obscure names to at least get in the running for this thing!!

Phoneyusa rutilata
Reversopelma petersi Schmidt
Chilobrachys 'guangxiensis'
Harpactira hamiltoni Pocock
