p. meridionalis

[fartkowski]

this guy was sold to me as pterinochilus meridionalis (zimbawe grey baboon)
I searched several sites and couldn't find anything under that name.
some picturs of pterinochilus chordatus sort of look like it
any idea on what it could be?

 

[fartkowski]

sorry here is the pic

It could be P.chordatus, but I think you should wait for the Pterinochilus experts to drop by.

That species is now Ceratogyrus meridionalis.

Your spider is likely P. chordatus, but can I see a ventral image?

The correct name is Ceratogyrus meridionalis. I don't know if that is what you have but that is the correct name.

EDIT: Darn, Eric beat me to it.

 

[fartkowski]

i'll get a ventral image later on tonight

Hi,

you've got a beautifull Pterinochilus chordatus

 

[P. Novak]

Yup definately Pterinochilus chordatus because there is no tan/peach band on the ventral side.

 

[fartkowski]

thanks for the repiles
i figured it had to be from the Pterinochilus family cause it sure does act alot like an OBT
it's just a little guy (about 2" ) but man is it aggressive
so far he is much worse than both my OBT's, but i still love him

[CedrikG]
