The male is about 6 iches, the female is smaller. They are probably a sub species of H. venatoria even though they are not listed from Africa.

I wonder if they're the same species that one shop sells as Heteropoda sp. "ex-kamerun"? Looks like venatoria but as I asked they "grow almost double the size".

Sounds like it is, the term "double the size " was used when I bought them too.

Africactenus poecilus female from Cameroon.


Nilus albocinctus female from Borneo. By far one of the fastest jumpy spiders I've dealt with :}

Love the Ctenidae sp. "Red Fang" Cameroon, how large is it? The Deinopis sp. Cameroon eye orientation and size are pretty interesting too haha.
