This was sold to me as Neoholothele incei. I don't know what it is, but I'm pretty sure what it's not.
Young incei have a light patch at the end of their 2nd to last leg segment. This sider doesn't.
This spider also has red chevrons on its last leg segment. Does anyone recognize this spider?
Yep, Psalmopoeus cambridgei, seems they got the common names mixed up (Trinidad Olive for incei and Trinidad Chevron for cambridgei) and subsequently labelled it with the wrong scientific name
when I wrote, "red chevrons on the las segment", I should have tipped myself off.
I think you guys are absolutely right. His fear response is to run up, which surprised me. I was expecting a terrestrial T.
Thanks, guys!
