Various Pics

A mystery T (sold as PZB sling, but now that it's around 5", based on markings/temperament, I doubt it), N. coloratovillosus, H. lividum, and C. brachycephalus:

The first one is a Lasiodora parahybana.

beautiful T's. Im no expert, so I can't say what the top one is, but it is GORGEOUS anyway!

That H. lividum is spectacular also, wow!

Thanks for sharing.

That lividium seems to be as electric blue as the Singapore Blue.
what do u think the PZB really is?

Not really sure what it is. It looks like L. parahybana in the pic, but in person due to the appearance, growth rate, temperament, attitude, etc. I'm not convinced it is L. parahybana. I have had a few L. parahybana's (still have one for sale actually) and it is just different in all aspects from them. Looks like it has a molt coming up so hopefully I'll get a look at its fresh markings and its big enough now that this will probably be its maturing molt. BTW, that H. lividum is really nasty. She doesn't even like anyone looking at her.

Same mystery T as in first picture in original post and a pic of the L. parahybana that I have. The mystery T kind of looks like L. difficilis that I used to have, but still not certain...
Also a pic of G. aureostriata, raised from a tiny, tiny speck (about 4" or so).

I wish my chaco would grow...

beautiful Chaco...cant wait til my 3 get that big

I think you should show off those gorgeous H. maculata's OldHag and I will be recieving soon They are definitely worth showing off!

Did you raise all of these from slings? you did a very good job! :clap:

At the risk of being slated for trying to ID a tarantula by photograph, I would have guessed that your mystery T is L parahybana. I only offer this because this species has really caught my eye (appearance and size) and I'm considering adding it to my collection. I would not have recognised the T you are claiming to be L para. Not that I'm questioning your judgement.

Erm...now I'm confused......are you saying the middle pic (before your Chaco) is L para or the mystery T? It's the middle one that looks like L para to me. I don't claim to recognise the first of those three pics. For some reason, the middle pic looks like the first pic you posted on this thread. Excuse me for this confusion......I'll get my coat!!!

I think in his second group of pics, the first and second pictures are the same spider. If that's what you are referring to.

I don't think so.

 

[Brian S]

I must say that I'm biased toward the Ceratogyrus brachycephalus. I am a big fan of this genus.

 

[rob]

Sorry for the confusion. Here's the scoop. The mystery T is the first photo in the first group and the first photo in the second group.

There is only one photo of the L. parahybana and it is the second photo in the second group.

The first and second photos in the second group of pics are not the same spider.

I'll see if I can get some pics of the H. macs, but they are extremely shy (as you'll soon see).

All of them are CB raised from slings except the H. lividum which I've had for a few years now, she's WC, but has been a great spider.

 

[common spider]

I have seen that also in a few of my T's.I have often woundered why they do it on there side and not on there backs??????

Hey Rob, what are your thoughts on the "mystery" T being A chacoana (commonly refered to as the Bolivian Salmon Pink)?

 

[common spider]

In the world of the T it can be strange!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That may be a good possibility. Seems to fit the general description.
