Is there any difference between sp blue and immanis rather than the blue colouration of sp blue?I'm really curious

I’ve noticed in my spiders sp. blue has longer hairs, I could be wrong though.

Blue begins with a "B" and Immanis begins with an "I".
You’re missing one really notable difference. Possibly the most important. Could even say it’s dealbreaker for the imanis sp “blue” costs more than double. Immanis can’t even begin to compete and if I’ve learned anything over the years. Bigger price = better

hi,

you can distinguish sp BLUE from cf. immanis (the common longhair form) by the absence of dense brush / line of longer hair at femur IV.
furthermore, at both form´s of cf. immanis the longer hairs on the abdomen should be more "curly".

Do you happen to have any clear side-by-side photos of these characteristics? Sometimes without photos to compare to, it is hard to determine what "dense", "longer", and "curly" look like on one's own tarantulas.

is it really nessecary to illustrate this?
it´s basically the same like in the 2 variants of cf. immanis.
or do you think that all the people, who talk about the SHORTHAIR / LONGHAIR, dont know what they talk about?
