Genus Cyriopagopus (a.k.a. Haplopelma)

[Tegenaria]

Anyone got pics of H anax, or have i missed them already? I noticed that species mentioned a lot in Schulz's book but no pic in the book of one!

You must mean H. minax, as there are no H. anax. Here's a picture of a nice big female from northern Thailand:

i'm glad this turned out well, i had to remove the lid to take it but check out those colors :drool:

VERY nice coloration. And it's only 2.5"???? Crazy, mines pushing 3". I'm assuming after this next molt, she'll be blue. The last one gave her a little blue.

Ben that is a beautiful C. sp blue do adult females usually look that vibrant? Ive seen quite a few pictures but yours is definately one of the nicest looking I have ever seen.

This is my most recent Cyrio aquisation

Got this one at BTS lectures

This is my original one, Shes the oldest of them, bigger and stockier..notably darker blues too

I actually have 5 singa 'blue' siblings housed together, sudying the interaction and sociability of this species.
Alls going very well so far, they have made one communal web and co-habit that

is there anyone that knows why my ad fem cyrio has the circular patches by the eyes, my other 2 dont have it, and i have to see another pic with it.
probably not, but anywho, worth a question

 

[phormingochilus]

It's an age sign that typically shows in large adults and is a sign of molting difficulties, probably due to age or size or deteriorating metabolism, but could also be stress related.

Ahh, nice one Soren,
AS far as i understand, its WC, and is an old specimen, shes VERY stocky, and a good inch or two bigger than the others. Colour is notabley darker too.
Will be a real shame when the enevitable demise comes..

 

[phormingochilus]

Death come to all living sooner or later ;-) Just enjoy her while you can. I suspect Cyriopagopus sp. "Blue" to be relatively short-lived. Usually slow maturing species tend to have long life's and fast developing species short lifespans. With this species the maturation is very fast (males often mature within a year) so maybe they live even shorter time as adults than for instance Avicularia (another relatively fast developing and short lived arboreal).
