It's a beauty!

I really want one, but £120 for a 2" sling is simply not in my bank balance at the moment...

I am very confused about the new changes involving Cyriopagopus. So now Cyriopagopus sp. "Singapore Blue" is Lampropelma but Cyriopagopus schioedtei is not. Now this new (amazing looking :drool: ) species is Cyriopagopus, but the tarantula lewisskinner posted a pic of is not. but possibly Phormingochilus? It appears in that picture, to me, to be nearly identical, lacking only the carapace striations.
My head hurts.
That Asian Arborials websight is proving very helpful, however. Does anyone have any other good links for better understanding Ornithoctoninae?

What they are currently described as (most from over 100 years ago) and what they really are is not necessarily the same thing.

Every species you refer to may very well belong in the same genus... regardless of what the current, proper scientific name is.
