It sure looks like a purple Kukulcania, and the thing is that it might belong to a separate genus of its own, findings of males in future should clear that up! It was collected from a dry, warm, rocky habitat of sparse Arecaceae forest.

Hi Guys! Just wanted to introduce this unique, beautiful amethyst-colored filistatid spider that me and my colleague described last year from southern Iran, and named it: Sahastata amethystina Marusik & Zamani, 2016 The photo is of the holotype female, by Ali Mohajeran. Hope you like it!

Hi guys, Any idea on this Cyclosternum fasciatum's book lung problem? probably bad molt?

Hi Guys. We came to the desicion that this is is a MF Hersiliola species :happy:

Pisauridae? the specimen is six eyed, Pisaurids are eight eyed. Beside that, the locality wasn't even close to a river/lake :-)

Hi guys, I'll be happy to know your ideas on the family of this spider: Alireza

congrats! my white widows hatched today too :-)

Hi all, Just wanted to let you guys know that one of the egg sacs hatched today. Unfortunately I wasn't here for the moment, and I'm afraid that some of the babies might came out of the air holes (when I came to them there were some walking outside already). What shall I do?

Hi All, My White Widows have laid three egg sacs. Any idea on how to keep them healthy til the slings are out?

Hi guys, any idea on this large fanged araneomorph spider? I was thinking to Miturgidae family, and possibly Cheiracanthium genus. any thought?

Does not look similar :-? What species is it?

Yes she was found around Tehran in a burrow. I've heard that there are even bigger wolf spider in that area. I've checked an quite out-dated book on Iranian arachnids, according to the book, there is only one Lycosa species and that's L. suzuki which was also found around Tehran. I googled it...

Hi Guys, Isn't this Wolfie just fascinating?! An ID would be hugely appreciated.

So is it ok to keep them at room temp?
