Is anybody working with this species? I saw an ad in the classifieds here recently for someone that had a MM & was looking for a female but that's the only mention of this species I have seen in a long time. Apparently these guys are SUPER rare!?! Awesome spiders though, too bad there aren't more in the hobby.
