yeah the Lampropelma violaceopes isnt really right, thats just what some people guess is the right name for that species, but it´s proberby not.. A more suitable name would be like Ornithoctoninae G. sp. "Lampropelma violaceopes"

Thanks, I agree that picture is one of my favorites that I've taken. Yes, it's female!


Thanks Bri, I just use flash but sometimes shut off the lighting in the room so the background darkens. I also change color balance in fireworks for some pictures which makes the lighting look sharper.

Lampropelma violaceopes, I'm just calling it as it's being sold in the US. :)
Honestly didn't do any research on it so I had no idea it was thought to possibly be some other species! Thanks for the info.

Very nice pictures, Manny, as usual! I'm especially fond of the P. ornata (definitely not helping my resolve to not own any more pokies ;) ).

Thanks Becca! The P. ornata is one of the nicer ones I think but I was banging my head on the wall because this one happens to be male. Females look much lighter in color.

John, you will need a scope to sex them accurately through molt if they're smaller than 4". I couldn't see the spermathecae for any of the females using plain eye site.

That P.sp "Goliath" is crazy big for still having the christmas tree pattern! It's going to be stunning as an adult I'm sure!

Thanks!

Well P. ornata just posted is a female. It's a good comparison to the one on the previous page which is a male. It shows the two sexual dimorphism well. They're both about 4.5-5".
