I understand it's Pamphobeteus but what species?

This is a MM sp."Machala" I believe, although I'm no expert.

I'm hoping I have one of these at home, although it's too small to know which sex I have at the moment. It's the greediest spider I have too - unbelievable appetite!

This is for sure No p.sp machalla
Its for sure a mature male and im not 100% sure
But I go with P.cf insignis

From what I can find the options seem to be P.nigricolor or P. insignis. Are they difficult to tell apart in photos?

The insignis male is more drak purple in color
Where the nigricolor Is more light purple/pinkpurple
Unless its the cf insignis thats allso more light purple than the true insignis

Pamphobeteus are pretty much impossible to tell apart from photos.
