P. subfusca 02 moult.jpg

Hi all, the moult was in with my spider for probably a couple of days before it was discarded (dumped in the water dish!) and looks a little chewed, but does that look like spermathecae in the middle? This was from a Poecilotheria subfusca 'lowland' of approximately 75mm DLS.

Thanks,
Dave
It's certainly possible that is a bit of the spermathecae there, but I wouldn't say it's definitive until you get an intact molt to examine.
