Genus Cyriopagopus (a.k.a. Haplopelma)

[Steve Nunn]

Depends on the DNA marker you choose

`

Well, apparently so... are you familiar with the results published last year from the BMNH regarding the DNA analyses in Aphonopelma, Brachypelma, Megaphobema, etc??? Good read if you can get hold of the work

Cheers,
Steve

Hi Steve,

do you have the reference for this paper/s?

Cheers.

Hi Steve,

do you have the reference for this paper/s?

Cheers.

Hi Dan,
I do, I will hunt it down
Also, if you are interested in DNA research you will find a heap of online articles at google scholar.

Hi Steve,
Yes, I saw Mr Longhorns presentation at the BTS Lectures. As he said, the work is by no means complete, but it provides an awful lot of food for thought.

See you all in a week, I'm off to Croatia

It seems Peewee is very big in the DNA field these days, a big leap from a creepy kids entertainer but there you go .


Sorry could not pass that one up

No <EDIT>???!!!!! sorry, sorry for swearing moderators, but that <EDIT> is freaky, I'm sorry LMAO

Nope only heard about the lecture. To my understanding the "bullet proofness" of DNA is only achieved when the whole set of variations are mapped (as with phyllogeny), first then you can find that "fingerprint" marker that will prove unique within species or genera or and upwards, the wider you aim the more material needs to be mapped and understood. "Same procedure as last year James ..." BTW some danish scientists has found a way to map how and where (and when) micro RNA works which is more or less the blueprint and instruction manual to the blue print (DNA) allegedly a great breakthrough in the treatment against genetically conditioned diseases.

That would be great, thanks. I don't have a problem with access to DNA research, i'm doing my PhD in an Molecular ecology/conservation lab (although i'm not working on consevation genetics myself, i hear enough about it from a day to day basis!).

Well in that case if I need to know anything I'll be knocking on your door I know nothing of DNA research, I'm antique, lol... The information I got came from a friend with the info himself, who caught up with Mr Longhorn last year. I will get hold of it asap.

Cheers,
Steve

A really good source for anyone wanting an introduction to population genetics can be found in this paper:

Luikart G, England PR, Tallmon D, Jordan S, Taberlet P (2003) The power and promise of population genomics: From genotyping to genome typing. Nature Reviews Genetics 4, 981-994.

Cyriopagopus schioedtei - 0.1 - subadult

 

[truhlik]

she is so beautyful :drool:

 

[Goliath]

Kris she is a beauty . Here is my sub adult female Cyriopagopus schioedtei, not a great picture. She just molted so I will try to get better ones.

Finally got a chance to get a pic of my MJ. Rare occasion, so I thought I'd make the best of it. Crappy cam, though.

 

[Lopez]

I had a nice surprise waiting for me when I returned from Croatia ;-)

 

[Deschain]

What an amazing contrast in colors Leon! I would be ecstatic to come home to that! Thanks for sharing the pics. :clap:

 

[G_Wright]

Very nice Leon I have a male here small still though and the other one I think is female

 

[Jetzie]

at about 3" and above, do the males of cyriopagapus blue show any coloration of blue at all? or it'll be brown all the way from ling to adult? got a 3" cyrio here and it has blue tinges and all, cant get a good ventral pic on it though. but a friend told me it shud be a male.
ani ideas about the coloration of the cyrio blues at diff stages?

 

[xBurntBytheSunx]

where do you guys get these at? i can't ever remember seeing any for sale
