N. fasciaauringra vs N. incei

[Tinyspiderzz]

I'd like to know the differences between the two Neoholothele sp as I have an incei myself and have recently seen a Neoholothele fasciaauringra for sale but to me they look nearly identical. Could anyone who has kept both of these enlighten me?

@Charliemum, any comparison pictures?

you would need to look at their descriptions in the WSC for anything else

in the pictures i have seen the stripes on the opisthosoma are a little more defined in N. fasicaaurinigra

They are not identical in looks. I’ve owned both.
Fasc colors are far more brighter!!!!!!! No incei looks like them.

0.1 Neoholothele fasciaaurinigra, sometimes called The Bumble Bee

I waited years to obtain this species ever since I saw it on Rick West's site.

Thanks! I did notice the legs seem more greenish on the Fasc. Are they much different in husbandry?

Of course
Marigold neoholothele fasciaaurinigra, only one of the genus I have

It’s the abdomen that is more noticeable too. They are called the Bumble Bee for a reason Normal incei don’t come close to that at all!

Basically the same, fasc a bit more delicate though.

Sorry it didn't load my pics for some reason attempt x2
They aren't all great pics but gives you a good look from most angles.





I set my girl up a little differently from others I glued alot of bark together then back filled it with sub gave alot of web points see my girl every week she's burrowed made lots of web tunnels and lined the web in her tunnels with dirt . She's a pretty active little lady.

N. fasciaaurinigra has a bright golden bumblebee coloration on the abdomen and has a slight green tint on the legs.

N. incei lacks this.

The price tag is quite different too

 

[IntermittentSygnal]

They are beautiful spiders, but mine is easily the most reclusive T I have. I only see her at rehousings and when she’s setting up shop in a new home.

That’s what puts me off

I have the gold incei and it’s beautiful @Tinyspiderzz I would recommend. I have seen the regular Incei version too I think its personal prefernece which you like best out of normal vs gold. But I haven’t seen the fasciaaurinigra like @TheraMygale says, its too expensive to justify the purchase for me

 

[Charliemum]

Can't put a price on the joy they bring when you see them pics really do not capture their sheer shining beauty
