Official name T. cyaneolum

[harmroelf]

I want to set things straight here once and for all.

T. Cyaneum
E. Pulcherrimaklaasi
Homoeomma sp. "peru"

All these names are wrong. The official name should be:

Thrixopelma Cyaneolum.

Al the other names are all the same species.

T. cyaneolum has been sold in the past as Homoeomma sp "blue" but at one time what now is T. cyaneolum was also called "Blue" "Small" so has not to confuse it with the larger spider that is what we now just call H.sp "Blue" and both have been sold as E. pulcherrimaklaasi along with a few other names, but the three species are not the same thing.

what now?

 

[ShadowBlade]

Hmm... no, I've never heard of T. cyaneolum being the same as Homoeomma sp "blue". Its a different sp.

 

[harmroelf]

Euathlus pulcherrimaklaasi and Homoeomma sp"peru". I am sorry, i mixed homoeomma sp "peru" and homoeomma sp. "bleu".

In the US, Homoeomma sp. "Blue" (large) is usually sold as E. pulcherrimaklassi.

Can you define large in BL or LS?

Can you define large in BL or LS?

The "large" Homoeomma sp. "blue" can get 7-8" in legspan. They can basically double T. cyaneolum in size.
