Hyllus diardi

[Wout]

This weekend I got a surprise. I had two females Hyllus diardi that laid an eggsack. The seller told me they were CB. So the sacks should be infertile. I took the sacks away but kept them just to be sure. This sunday I found this. I just wanted to share this with you.

Weird, I'm wondering if the seller made a mistake then. There isn't any parthenogenesis in salticids that I know of, though I suppose since we just learned about one that produces "milk", so why not?

Congratulations! How many slings did you end up with?

 

[Wout]

Thanks! There still in a nimf stage, so I leave them with te sack and don't touch them. When they get more mobile I will count them. There are two more sacks so I will have my hands full with them.

They are doing very well. There adult colors are showing and about sub adult right now. Sold already alot. I am in europe. So if you are in the US that is going to be a problem.

These are normally WC from SE Asia and exported. Not many are actually CB.

Here in Europe the species is since years also regularly available as CB.

The parents were WC. They came in already mated. Im setting up different bloodlines so I can keep the breeding going.

Sorry, was speaking of the US.
