Hello everyone!
my name is Simone, I am from Italy.
i have several species of stick insects and spiny assassin bug but i am not very expert in caring for spiders, I only have a Grammostola pulchripes female, hoping to expand and learn more!
here is my first question
I read about Sicarius sp. and I am stunned by their behaviour; unortunately here in Italy they are illegal so it's just a curiosity but I have read that they are highly venomous, is this true? and for all of this Genus or only for some species?
i would like to know their venom composition (proteins and so on)...I have looked for info on the net but i prefer hear from experts.
I am trying to know as much as I can about this fascinating Genus, here in Italy we have a relative, Loxosceles rufescens!
I hope not to have bothered you with my long post!
regards,
simone
