Lasiodora?

Lasiodora?

Was dropped off at a local pet store - any ideas? The girl who dropped it off said it's a "rose hair 100%" but I'm certain it's a Lasiodora sp. (Picture was taken at time of drop off and has been moved to a more proper enclosure)
That's a Grammostola, the Lasiodora genus does not have mirror patches on the abdomen. If you look at the abdomen and see the mirror patch, it's an indicator that it's some sort of Grammostola sp.
 
Yeah I agree with Olan. It looks like a grammastola pulchra. I don’t think you should have sand in it’s enclosure though.
 
I don't think it is a rosea, or porteri. It looks closer to a pulchra to me. Can you get a shot with the flash? Is it primarily black?
 
@Vanessa I'm not seeing black - the white sand can cause the camera to go weird on color balance with phones. It looks like a brown T with hints of red/pink on the carapace to me.
