I recently bought an avic sling online and it was labelled as avicularia sp. "Blue velvet" i didint see that on your extensive list, so i was wondering what species it may be referring to if you know.

Not sure if you know, but Ts w/that naming convention Genus sp. (insert bunch of words), like the one you wrote, or H. sp. Columbia for example, are not scientifically described species. Hence, the "sp.", thus all you know is exactly what you have. Some species, have the names of states/countries/cities in their name to indicate point of capture, like H. sp. Columbia.

In the end, owners of that Avic don't know where it came from, unless somehow their vendor knows, and that's assuming the exporter labeled them legitimately. Many exported Ts are labeled under other names for a variety of reasons.

For you, enjoy your Ts, and never breed it with another Avic that you are not 100% sure is a A. sp. Blue Velvet.

Here is one of my 4 Avics. An AF Avic Avic. Love them all, and always learning of more and more interesting variations within the Genus.

@mygale -

I am literally in shock in regards to your last photos here. Absolutely astounding.
I know we do not solicit sales here, but I believe you sell posters correct?

I was told I have an A. metallica but I want to double check with the Avic enthusiasts. Pics coming very very soon.
