Subfusca have been tough for me to find. How come so many recommendations for P.cambrigei? I have an Irminia and think Victorii or Ecclesiasticus are cooler looking. Never had any of the psalmopoeus before though. Are cambrigei any hardier? Or what's the draw?
P. subfusca may be harder to find for you because they're one of the Sri Lankan pokies on the endangered species list. You can only legally buy one from an instate breeder.
Yes i saw that. Yes Phormictopus are great
I realize this is an old post but it got me to thinking….
Ahhhhh this is almost 3 years old OP more than likely already got what they wanted.
Yeah I figured that’s probably the case but it was still a fun topic to think about. I pretty much only jump in on old threads, based on many posters reactions I feel like it’s gonna get me ex-communicated lol. I’m the equivalent of teaching your grandparent how to use the internet. Oh well!
Lol....no never ex-communicated. You never know they might see your suggestion.
My next few I'd like are Cyriopagopus sp. Hati hati, H. mac and Chilobrachys sp. Electric Blue.
Which species ?
Looking for Ybyrapora sooretama adult photos.
Wow. I thought I at least recognized the name of almost every species by now but I have to say I have never even heard mention of that one before. Probably why nobody has piped up, they must not be very established in the hobby. As far as I can tell from google images it is not quite as striking as the diversipes but similar patterning. The “triangle” pattern seems to be a little more muted also but might depend of lifestage. Some of those avicularinae really seem to go through dramatic changes. Well you’ve certainly given me something to look into. I’ve been so deep in the Asian arboreal ‘rabbit hole’ that I almost forgot about this side of the world. I’ll keep my eyes and ears peeled incase sooretama gets a mention!
I found Ybyrapora sooretama slings for sale and the photos are awesome. This is the first time I've seen them offered.
I’m guessing these are close to full grown. They’d be a smaller species. Almost reminds me of those Brazilian jewels a little bit but hopefully not as pricey. Where do you live where they have slings? I’m guessing the states. I’m in Canada so the selection is not on par and some of the prices are nuts.
I'm in the U.S. so it's a U.S. dealer
Your best bets of finding photos of adults are probably either looking them up under their old name (Avicularia sooretama) or checking the Avic revision where they were moved to Ybyrapora (should include photos of all life stages).
If those aren't your own photos or you haven't asked the image owner for permission then you'll need to delete them from your post because of AB's copyright rules
Didn’t realize that; sorry
No worries, I don't make the the rules, was just giving you a heads-up.
Ahhh thanks, didn't know their old name. That'll help alot thx again.
