I acquired this lil guy in trade The abdomen striping kind of reminds me of Haplopelma sp...
LS is 3.5", spinerettes are black w/ lateral stripes. He is freshly hooked out and webbing everywhere.
The star pattern on carapace is more of a metallic-gold than shows in the pic. Underside is dark and no hint of any color on femurs.
Thanks! Timo suggested that it's P. chordatus, and that Harpactira sp. is very unlikely due to rarity. It was originally sold to a fellow as a P. cancerides spiderling by an importer, so it is possible.
I don't plan on working with either genus, so he'll remain a virgin in my care till he passes someday.
