Wow very nice T, but I have no idea what it is. I take it that its WC since you live in Brazil?

 

[ShadowBlade]

First one looks like Metriopelma spp.

hi soad,

Couldnt this be a member of Oligoxystre genus?

 

[SOAD]

Yes it is WC. From Northeast Brazil.

hi soad,

Couldnt this be a member of Oligoxystre genus?

Man i don't think so. Body structure is diferent, behavior is totally diferent too.
Eric Reynolds could help us here.

 

[SOAD]

many views but anyone say nothing? Martin?

 

[ShadowBlade]

Yep the bottom two look like Lasiodara sp.

No ones going to be able to tell you for sure which species.

 

[SOAD]

i know! But a guess is more than enough as i have no idea on what the Sp1 and Sp2 are. the others i know genus level and this is enough for me.

 

[ShadowBlade]

Whats the legspan of the first one? I'm quite sure its a Metriopelma.

 

[SOAD]

1 and a half inch. or 3,5cm. Metriopelmas in brazil? i didn't know they occur here.

What is making you say Metriopelma spp.?

i didn't know they occur here.

I didn't know of any that were mainly in Brazil, either. The ones I'm familiar with are from Venezuela, Bolivia, and Costa Rica.

M. velox is from Ecuador is it not? If they occur as spread out as Venezuala to Ecuador, why not Brazil? There's plenty of un-identified T's from Brazil.


The dark first leg segment, and brighter other parts are on many sp. of Metriopelma. It also appears to have very mature coloration and form for only 1.5". Can you think of a better genus for it? (Not meant in a sarcastic way).

 

[SOAD]

it can grow up to 7-8 cm. i don't have adult female but i've seen one.

 

[SOAD]

Maybe Ciryocosmus sp?

 

[SOAD]

all i need is a guess on the first one.
