I think...did get changed back, again? WSC doesn't show that species under Cyclosternum. I know it's not always the most up-to-date but I haven't heard about it being changed back.
A long while back Ray Gabriel moved some of the Cyclosternum species in to Davus (or resurrected it, my research was quick) that had fused spermathecae. C. pentalore was one of them. Seller needs to update their labels. Think I found threads about it over ten years old mentioning it. WSC shows it as early as 2003. 1998 was Davus pentalore before being moved to Pseudoschizopelma in 1999 then to where it is now in 2003...if you were curious
I have one of these, awesome little critter about 3/4"
Wait, I think I misread. You're saying you saw where it was proposed as C. pentalore but wasn't accepted? That would explain why no mention in the history.
Davus pentaloris is a species of New World tarantula (family Theraphosidae) native to Mexico and Guatemala. Davus was at one time considered to be a synonym of Cyclosternum, and its species were placed in that genus, but this is no longer accepted.[1]
