Haplopelma sp."aureopilosum"

Size: Very small! Still more than capable of maintaining a threat posture though.

Hi Sjef
I got this one last week from Seb Imhoff in France, along with some other stuff I've frankly never heard of (Ornithoctonus godgoli?!?!)
He gave me the hatch date of 01/07/03 (3 months ago) so I assume he bred these himself.

Some research leads me to believe Ornithoctonus gadgili (earlier name was a spelling error) is synonymous with P regalis(!?) but these are not Poecilotheria by any stretch of the imagination.

Another source tells me they are actually Haplopelma sp."longipedum" (sold in America as C paganus)

Any ideas Sjef?

My closest call would be Haplopelma sp. "longipedem" or "the vietnam species". I think it's the latter because you don't see many real longipedem's around lately, and you dó see a lot of freshly imported "vietnam species" who drop eggsacs...

I don't think Ornithoctonus gadgili is in the pet-trade anyway...

No way it's anything near Poecilotheria!! LOL!!

I received two of these (I only asked for one!)
Both are quite different looking, but show similar (burrowing) tendancies.
I'll be interested to see how they grow.

Here is the first:
