N. Chromatus Female
At first glance to the naked eye, looks male. (Zoomed Macro Capture Reveals an almost invisible Spermathecae)

The same molt an hour after reveals a more visible Spermathecae

My 2nd Nhandu Chromatus (I almost ripped off the exuvium, luckily the Spermathecae was not damaged.) :biggrin:

Thought i would start this thread, so we can add pictures of various spermethecae. Maybe this will help someone identify a unknown/mislabeled tarantula at some point. Be sure to post the genus/species the spermethecae belong to, and get the best picture you can. Enjoy!



Nhandu tripepii


Poecilotheria vittata


Brachypelma emilia


Aphonopelma seemanni BCF


Pterinochilus lugardi


Poecilotheria rufilata


Lasiodora difficilis

it is good to have something to compare to... but a thread like this stands or falls with the ID's of the animals used. I have my questions with B. angustum for example. Where in Costa Rica was this collected?
