Thanks!

Let me know if I'm irritating you guys by posting so many pictures...

I've took a few more, 'firstly' I've got a better pic of the Velvetosoma, as the earlier one was pants :/

Next is another spider I'm unsure of what it is... It's a Pterinochilus, but which?

First pic of two. Second is of the ventral side. Notice the left rear leg is skinnier? We had to haul it off a few weeks back due to it being badly gashed. Anyway it moulted yesterday and looks liek this now:

Here's the ventral picture (Oh by the way, Ventral is 'Underneath' isn't it?)

I'm guessing male too, though it's unclear on this picture. I actually expected it to mature with this moult, but alas, nay... ho hum

Crappy quality, but look at the sucker hanging from my magnificent spider utility tool.. Well it's a paint brush with a bendable paper clip sellotaped to one end

I don't know the species, but I'd check that exuvia for spermathecae. Not much expansion of the furrow, but a very characteristic female shaped "dish" anterior of the furrow.

Also, yes, ventral is the bottom.

Thanks :)

Yeah that was my reason for the excavation, to harvest the exuvium. Sadly it's insanely matted amongst web and substrate and is pretty trashed :<

Ahh thanks for the sexing pointers, I'll try for some better pictures later. Perhaps it is a female, unless it's stupidly obvious of the gender, I usually can't figure it out from the outside view

Cheers!

Earlier I said my "Lasiodora polycuspulatus " (was a terrible picture)

It's actually a "Lasiodorides polycuspulatus "

I've got two decent ones of her now :D Apologies for constantly reviving the thread... let me know if it's annoying you all

I'd say the Pterinochilus is P. murinus, it's just the brown morph rather than the usual orange most people have. I've been trying to get some pics of mine for a while, but it goes spacco every time i take the lid off its tank. Nice pics by the way :)

Cheers,

Dan.
