I believe it is an undescribed species, but the moniker it has been bestowed is P. sp "tigris" as of this moment.

Poecilotheria sp. 'tigris' is a new species from India that is closely related to P. miranda. It has been bred by two different parties in Europe and arrived in the US for the first time this week. Andrew Smith will be describing it in the near future (Thorsten Kroes provided a good deal of field data to Andrew), but those of us who know what the eventual scientific name will be will keep it to ourselves until the description is published. For now, let's just call it "tigris". More information including photos can be found at Thomas Märklin's poecilotheria.com by clicking here.

Cheers, Michael
