hi john, I was looking better, and I guess this may be a V. vellutinus or V. sorocabae.

Yes I can see the comparison but the sorocabae is more orangish in the leg striping and the vellutinus is a more black color. Then there are some that say all 3 are all the same just different color forms. Oddly enough this is the one with the pink cheliserae

ok, the first looks like a V dubius, it will change collour dramatcly after molt. will get darker, almost black like other members of Vitalius genus. The other two look like vellutinus and sorocabae to me :confused: . but you must get the ID keys to be sure. Am not an expert.
