I have been in the hobby for about 3 years now and was curious why some tarantulas "scientic names" all of a sudden just change? For example Grammostola Aureostraita was changed to Grammostola Pulchripes. What does "pulchripes" translate into anyways? Who decides why the name should be changed? If any name as well as genus should be change...it is Nhandu Chromatus. it does not look like any of the other Nhandus. Thank all who has any answers for this!
