Which T has the bluest blue adult Female coloration?

What is P.PQ113?

An Australian species.

How does my friends P.PQ113 stack up?

Its pretty close to L. violaceopes, blue-wise.

 

[jigalojey]

Yeah, the colour doesn't stick though .

Does it eventually change color completely, or just darken with each molt as it ages?

That one has to be fresh from molt, I've seen a few in person that are brown. Much like Orphnaecus sp. blue, they start to dull throughout their molt cycle, although, O. sp. blue do turn more greyish then brownish. Both are great species.

Yeah my O.sp Blue (or Panay Blue or Blue Panay) hides the entire time it is blue so I only get to see it when it's brown. Granted it varies from black to cream so it's certainly not a very boring looking spider.

Actually I thought it was a cloud , I assume based on your responses it has not been scientifically described yet? Is there a common name?

 

[Philth]

I could add at least another 5 or 6 species to this...

You don't count cause you get all sorts of goodies the general public doesn't have

 

[LordWaffle]

Get in contact with Joyce for example, she owns one, too. Maybe she can tell you where she got hers?

I've got a few as well, they're around the states, just not super common.

You're correct it is only hobby described, should be scientifically named by Dr Raven in his new paper.

When Raven puts it out, would appreciate link to it! Blue Ts are gorgeous, and we see so few Ts in general from down under that a blue one is a real treat!
