Os there a pattern to what species this is mostly seen in or is it just random?

If this spider wasn't in China I'd have bought it myself...
You would have had to fight me for it.

Since the photos were not working for me I looked up what a tarantula gynadromorph is. So cool! Too bad that you could obtain it. Also, what is the lifespan of such a thing?
Oooh, I am curious about the prospective lifespan too!

Gynandromorphs are most common in inverts, especially butterflies (because they have a high rate of sexual dimorphism, they are easy to spot.) But there are gynandromorph birds that have been documented also.

I can't answer many of your professional questions. But I will update its status and pictures from time to time. Thank you for your attention.

After his molting, he actually has two alternate colors. Is that a mutation? Can I reproduce with him

It could be hermaphrodite because it has half a seminal vesicle
Can you post the pictures again, i cant see them anymore.

Correct use of the term "bilateral gynandromorph" AND a link to more, as well as some other cool abnormalities?!

dord, how can I ever thank you for making me so happy? :rofl:
I repeat my question. Will one leg and one pedipalp have hook and bulbous? Will half spider be adult and the other half not??? Caus males mature little earlier. If it actuly could produce, this would have been most practical! When "male side" is mature, the spider spins a spermwebb, sucks up sperm with pedipalp. Waits to the "female side" is mature and reach under itself and insert sperm in its half spermatheca!:happy::smug:

Yes, it will have hook and bulbus on one side.(Look at my previous answer and article linked.)
But AFAIK it wont be able to produce spermweb, mate with female nor male,and deffinitely not with itself.
