Hello,
I am a technical illustration student looking for interesting arthropods (deceased) to add to my collection. I would gladly exchange an illustration of the specimen for the actual specimen. I live in Ontario, Canada for shipping and handling sake. which I would be willing to cover. Here is the one scorpion I have.


so to anyone who has spiders, scorpions or any other interesting critter that they'd be willing to part with or know anyone else who would be of help, I would love to hear from you.

Thanks a million,
Richard


Is that a Centruoides vittatus (Say)?

@TiogaWhiteTiger, absolutely beautiful pictures, especially of G. ankarana. Are you going to breed them? And also, what camera do you use?
