Is the cyriopagopus sp. big black the same as cyriopagopus minax?

Hello everyone, I'll be getting a cyriopagopus sp. big black next month and I was wondering if it's the same species with the minax. I'm not sure what sets them apart, but I'm a assuming that the sp big black is larger than the minax.

It´s the same species I believe.

I know this was way back in 2021, but if I were you. I would just keep their labels as is, and try not to mix it up. The former genus Haplopelma is already confusing enough. There could be slight differences in terms of morphology between those two. It could either be differences in stridulatory organs or, needs DNA sequencing, all because they both came from totally different locals. So the jury is still out on this one. We'll just have to keep their own designated labels, till further future revisions are made.
