Guess That Spider

[z32upgrader]

Nothing on the first page "rules" indicate you can't use the net to research the picture or its whereabouts.

I agree!
I'd be surprised if no one did any online research. When I see a photo, a name usually comes to mind. I search for photos of what I think it is and compare to the challenge photo. Making educated guesses is what this thread is about. It's a nice test of your knowledge too.
I don't want to make it too easy either. Sana posted a photo of what turned out to be a Pamphobeteus sp. Santo Domingo and it was also the only Pampho on her invert list.

Brachypelma ruhnaui

No, it's not ruhnaui or their current name of B. albiceps.

You could go with that if 1.75" DLS seems big to you.
*Hint* This photo is in a thread somewhere on Arachnoboards and the tarantula pictured was donated to science as part of the recent Aphonopelma revision.

That one was a dwarf species A. mareki. A. johnnycashi is a 5+inch spider.

I kinda thought that was the case....I'm not too well studied on Aphonopelma obviously.

"view image info tab" indicates its from the gallery of this Czech web page?

From first page
"I've got a challenge/game for you guys. I will add a photo of a T I own and you have to guess the species, the first person to get the ID correct posts a pic of one of their T's and we then guess that and so on. Just figured a fun thread would be nice, I'm using a very generic looking sling for my pic so good luck haha. EDIT: Each person gets three guesses per photo"

I'm sorry I didn't know that it had to be one I owned. My bad. I take full responsibility.

 

[JAFUENTES]

This should be a fun one.

Yes. My bad also because I didn't read that it had to be one I owned.

[sdsnybny]

B. vagans complex.

 

[cold blood]

Looks albiceps (ish), although the carapace isn't quite creamy white enough...looks Brachy to me.

 

[Thistles]

@z32upgrader Brachypelma kahlenbergi? I had a Brachypelma "vagans" that was really a cross with B. albiceps that looked almost identical.

 

[BobBarley]

Brachypelma epicureanum
