European Tarantula by KezyGLA posted Nov 2, 2017 at 11:52 PM
Super fast and pretty feisty.
Found in regions of south eastern Europe and northern Africa. These are super hardy and adaptable. Pretty much bombproof.
Yeah P. murinus has semi-arboreal tendencies and are highly adaptable to pretty much any environment. But Encyocratella can often be found living many metres high in trees.
Both are basically the same. They are even found in the same regions.
Both web like crazy. But olivacea maybe a little more. They also have the same attitude ;)
The only difference is that olivacea is an arboreal.
It’s Haplopelma for sure.. but could be one of many from that genus. Most likely vonwirthi, Which are the most commonly imported WC.
If had locality info it would help. But if not, will just need to be labelled Haplopelma sp.
