Freshly molted - fiesty little ones. Anyone have any other pictures of these?
There are a few species of a few genus in the middle east.pitbulllady said:Someone in Israel had taken a pic of an ultimate male of this species wandering along an alleyway and posted it on a photo-and-art-hosting site, Deviantart.com. I sent Rick West a link to the pic, and he identified it as this species. I'd not even known that there were T's in the Middle East before that.
What's the personality of these like? Are they more like the African species, very fast and highly defensive or what?

The spiders I had of this genus was not defensive like typical africans, quite docile in comparison.
Theres also a tiny species in the genus, C. karlamani, which are found on Cyprus and Turkey. The size is only a few cm in bodylenght of a adult female
A bad pix of the female I had:

yes, i'm going to breed this species, like other african species i keep, too. I have C. gracile from Cyrpus and Israel. The Cyprus Variation is much bigger now and from a breeding of a good friend (Ingo Wendt) last year. We make breeding groups in every species if possible. (I also in touch with several other ppl who are keeping african species for breeding groups.)WidowMaker said:T. Raab, are you planning to breed them? They breed relatively easily. So you definately could get more on the market.
Best wishes.
