How many of you guys have seen a Calif. ebony?
Where they got the ebony from, I don't know. Isn't ebony, black?
I guess I'll see what it looks like after a molt. :?

Your right ebony is black. I've never herd of that Ahonopelma before.

On John Hoke's species description, Aphonopelma eutylenum is listed as California ebony.

I bought it from Darrin ( Golden Phoenix Exotica ) at the Az. reptile show last weekend.
He got it from a guy that supplied 4 of them to the National Geographic people. They did a show on this species. Darrin had all 4, so he sold one. Their all females. He has another one for sale on his site..

Ah, sounds like another case of "A. B. aphonopelma" or "another brown aphonopelma"

Pretty T, at any rate...
