Differences between P ornata and P regalis?

[FoxyGrandpa]

Hi everyone! I was curious as to what some main differences between the P ornata and P regalis are. I thought I had an ornata but turns out she might be a regalis. But she doesn’t exactly look like my other regalis. So what do I look for to determine which one she is?

Poecilotheria are ventrally different for each species. You can use their ventral banding to determine which species you have in most cases.

This helps a lot, thank you! So she is a regalis after all.

Check their ventral side. There’s a great image on the forum of their legs, all the species have different leg patterns.

you could google it

I did search google, but they looked very similar so I wasn't sure what exactly look for. But the image previously posted helped significantly.

Regalis is the easiest one to identify.
