I know :D But my windenmanni (chordatus :p) have quite different coloration than chordatus, so I call him windenmanni instead of "chordatus 2" or somethin' else :)

The "Red Form" doesn;t look much different from the "Usambara"? Just looks younger (ie less colorful)??

Yes ? usambara is just the RCF of murinus? if they appear to be a lighter colour it could be the UMV colourform

Usambara Mountain Variant, it is theorized it is a cross between the red colourform and the normal colourform as the colouring is btween the two and some are known to be arboreal(though most burrow)

On pics they look very similar but really they are quite different. Usumbara is yellow/orange, Red is orange/red :)

Your murinus red form and "usambara" sub adult have extremely similar colouring , i don't see how you can discern them as 2 different species,
And you Adult "usambara" is a much redder/darker colour to your sub adult, and is definately a red form P. murinus,

The sling may be a "umv" p. murinus, but because it is so small i don't think anyone can be sure.

Hey bro, these tarantulas are beautiful, and excellent pics man ! though i must say, the huahini will be quite a handaful !! I have an adult one that is around 18 cm possibly bigger, it went through a molt a couple of months back. I fed her an adult mouse a couple of weeks after the molt hauahu aah uaauhauahau. She paralysed the rat in matters of seconds, like 5 - 7 seconds, the venom must be quite effective, plus i have other old worlds but nothing is so defensive as this one is.

Heres the her and the mouse i fed :eek:

Cya !
