I dont have much to add as I am kind of in the same boat as you, but I would wait a bit more as to me they seems to have more to grow.

Are the swammerdami in the hobby not the real ones?

I think rare or valuable is very subjective. You have to take on different perspectives. First, on concern to species that are or may be in the hobby. This is easy as you may know them just by seeing people looking for them. Some may be valuable as the demands increases. But on a second hand...

Have read somewhere over the years that these bluish ones are from a locality, maybe Indonesia that doesn't export anymore while these greyish ones are from Malaysia which still does. I am not sure if the countries are correct but the situation is it.

lepturus means "thin tail".

Gorgeous, but this is not a viper gecko or Hemidactylus imbricatus. It is from Stenodactylus genus. Probably Stenodactylus sthenodactylus.

Fantastic! Isn't the last scorpion Hemiscorpius?

Exactly. Thanks for clarificate this Yes, this is what I was planning to find out. Maybe there is someone with these notes...

It would be good a database for males and females in diferent species...

I have read in multiple caresheets that adult female philippinus may reach 3 inches while others consider that it may get even 7 inches. I have some which are about 3 inches after a couple years, so, what is the maximum size of this species? thanks

Nice pictures Brad. What about the lenses?

I hope so then. Thanks a lot!

Thanks all you for the kind words. I received these in May in Brazil. At this time both were very thin and here was very dry and somewhat cold. Since then, i tryied to get benefited from this weather simulating their natural cycle, fed them eventualy and the female got fat but the male very...

Here are some pictures of them and their setup.

Thanks anyway. Well, yes, both mature and big.

Hello everybody. Last weekend I tried pairing my flat rocks in two ways, first introducing the male in the females terrarium and the oposite in the next day. In both situations the female seeked the male but he always avoided her. Should I try a neutral place and put them both in there? Thanks

Thanks for the feedback, Tom. Too bad the the name remains a mistery and that they loose the blue when adult, but still a remarkable acquisition to your collection ;)

Thats true Tom, here we are not allowed to keep them. I just think that this species may not be brazilian. Besides the prohibition, spiders are still kept by a lot of people, and when new and differents individuals are collected, they pop up in brazilians forums and FB groups. I am very...

I am brazilian and I can tell you they are just not existent in brazilian hobby. Maybe it is from here, but I think it is pretty much improbable. Never even saw any picture of it in brazilian forums or FB groups.

Tom, do you know more about this Monte Carmelo? Like where is this locality and what its looks like when adult? Thanks
