Only 5…tough one since lots of species are interesting for different reasons. I think I’d go with (in no particular order):

Tityus silvestris
Hadrurus arizonensis
Zabius fuscus
Opistophthalmus pallipes
Troglorhopalurus translucidus (when pigs fly;) )

Oliver,

I see there's another fan of O. pallipes on the a'board. The males (from photos) are truly impressive with those massive, elongate chelae. Very beautiful species.

Yes it a spectacular species, that and O. longicauda are two species I'd love to have. The limited ranges of both means that its going to be unlikely that either of these species will enter the hobby anytime soon.
