Amazing color on the last picture - somehow the two first pictures will only show about 50% in my Firefox. Anyone else who has this problem?

Very impressive. What size is he and are females remotely close to that?

I have a breeding ready female, but they don't get that color. The females are jet black. If you wanted to see some more amazing T's, look at P. nigricolors relatives such as the male P. untramarinus, male P. antinous, and male P. platyomma.

Well, the females aren't jet black. Mine have a little color on their carapaces, but nothing so stunning as that.

Are there any female pamphos that look impressive? Don't female ultra's have very nice coloration as well?

Yeah, female ultras are outstanding. I believe www.giantspiders.com has pics... I wish I had my camera so I could post my pamphos and immanis.

I know immanis and certain pamphos do but I'm wondering which females are clearly nicest in coloration? IE: platyomma females they look brown to me for the most part, nigricolor are blackish ultra females though, from what I saw, did have some amazing coloration. Are there any others?

Off the top of my head, I believe the female P. ornatus looks good. It is darker with a purplish color in the right light. There are also some undescribed Pamphos that are impressive. I might be missing a Pampho or two, but I think I covered them all thus far.

Other Genus species out there have impressive females as well. Just for one instance... look at the M. robustum.

T.S.

Edit: Also the Monocentropus balfori female.

Both of my Pamp. playtomma females have deep purplish tints to their carapaces and parts of their legs. I'm sure the male will eventually dwarf the magnificence of their color when he hits maturity, but for now the ladies are prettier.

Those purplish tints will fade. They brown out. I actually think the P. sp. platyomma female look best in that intermediate phase when the femurs are black, the knees are brown, and the rest of the legs have the brown as well. Anyway, the males are magnificent. I hope to get my camera back next week. I have three males that are just brilliant in color. I will try to remeber to notify you and send the pics over.

Also, the P. sp. II Ecuador males are very "Xenesthis" looking.

The young P. fortis female that I own does show quite a bit of purplish-pink on the carapace and femurs... much more than my P. platyomma (sp.) - in fact, there's really no comparison.

Cheers!
