Wow! That's what I'm talking about. This appears to be a locality of P. antinous.

Possibly yeah. The genus is a mess and a lot have made up names. When she comes out of her hide I will get a proper pic in hwr "new clothes". I don't like disturbing my big girls too close after a moult as it takes a lot out of them.

Awesome! Over the next month, I'll be posting lots of 8"+ Pamphobeteus spp. pics in my collection and some Lasiodora spp. live and molt skins with measurements.
