About bloody time lol. The same goes for people on UK forums. I've been trying to correct it for ages but seem to get nowhere. I've higlighted the most important of your post :D

Sorry, I cant answer that. Mine were imported from the Kwitara river region so the importer named them after where they were collected. I dont know if they have been looked at by the taxonomists yet so will keep mine as they are named for now. Its better to know the locale they came from so...

Here in the UK we had an import of large green Avics back in Sept 08. They sold here as A. sp. "Kwitara river" but could possibly be the A. sp. "large green/metallica green" since they came from the right area. They were collected in the Rupununi area in Southern Guyana near the Brazilian...

A. sp. "amazonica" get big for an Avic at upto 9 inch legspan. Mine is only a juvie at 5.5 inch :eek: A. braunshauseni, "peru purple", huriana and "kwitara river" also get reasonably large at approx 7 inches. My largest Avics here are my MM and AF A. sp. "kwitara river". Both are just under...

Sorry to say current218, but thats not A. metallica but rather a gorgeous little A. versicolor.

A. sp. "fasciculata" adult female A. versicolor AF A. sp. "bicegoi" AF A. sp. "Amazonica" A. sp. "Suriname" AF A. sp. "kwitara" s/a female

So sorry to hear that Rob :( We had the same thing happen with an A. avic just a couple of days after pulling the sac. She was a bit wierd (lethargic, leaving the sac for long periods, drinking a lot and forever at the heatmat) which was the reason for pulling the sac then 2 days later she...

Thanks T-REX :) Thanks for your input Eric. It may well be that these have been in the hobby previously or are even in the hobby now as something else but with the mess the Avic genus is in it makes sense to name them after the collection locale. The dealer gave me information on the exact...

Fair enough, I guess I get a wee bit defensive when it comes to Avics. I've been keeping them for a few years now and I'm always careful about which one's I get and from whom. I also wont breed from something I'm not so sure about.

I actually paid very little for these Ryan. They came from a very reputable dealer here in the UK. I have the collection data for them and according to Ray Gabriel they could possibly be the A. sp. "large green" that were around some time ago.

This is my MM A. sp. "kwitara river". He is huge for a male Avic at 6.5 + inches l/s The male and female post mating

Nice list :D My braunshauseni came from a dealer in Germany a couple of years ago. A gorgeous species but rather feisty for an Avic lol.

Too many :eek: By far my favourite Genus. This is my lot. 9 x A. sp. "Amazonica" 7 x A. versicolor 2 x A. azuraklaasi 2 x A. sp. "Kwitara" (1 is mated) 5 x A. sp. "fasciculata" 1 x A. sp. "suriname" 5 x A. sp. "Peru purple" 2 x A. sp. "bicegoi" 1 x A. sp. "avicularia" mated 5 x A...

Absolutely stunning girl she is too :worship: I have a large juvie male here that I'm rather attached to. Feisty little sod he is too for an Avic lol.
