I do feel that the Phlogiellus genus is vastly underrated. They can be very visible although some are quick to hide away when disturbed. Most will cover the whole of their containers with web and then many chose to sit on top of the web.
My first introduction to the genus was when I thought I'd buy a few dwarf Ts I'd already bought a couple when I came across a Phlogiellus sp. baeri and so I welcomed Data. She was quite lively as a sling but is probably one of the calmest Ts I have now.
Next came Ta Nim, a Phlogiellus sp. Koh Samui. A little more shy still.
The next of my bunch to arrive were 4 female Phlogiellus sp. Khao sok. Sadly Na Rak Left me for spider heaven but the other 3 are thriving. All very heavy webbers and love their food.

And the latest additions have been a bunch of Phlogiellus atriceps locality Bogor most of which I will be selling but I plan to keep 2.
Salak
Mist. This one has webbed so much since the picture was taken that I can't get a new one of it.
There have been others that sadly died as slings. They were Phlogiellus sp. karon (died within 6 hours of arrival),
Phlogiellus sp. Thailand (only survived a few months) and probably my favourite Phlogiellus sp. Khao Lak.
