A tan species with a white face and dense fringe along the clypeus 'shielding' the chelicerae.

Mature female

Some white remains, with black cuticle barely noticeable beneath.

Note the black mark on her cephalothorax which is basically her hair-line- the portions devoid of scales.

Never before have i seen this degree of melanism in this species. Ive seen a few that are dark but this one is intense!

Dorsal habitus showing pattern on abdomen Almost resembles an Ankh

Penultimate/antepenultimate female. Her pattern is really showing now.

Lateral view

Unlike females, male octopunctatus mimic velvet ants- dasymutilla nocturna, to be precise. This species gets quite large- this male is def 19-20mm, so i believe reports of females being up to 25mm.

Adult female and immature male octopunctatus are cryptic and sedentary and prefer to just hide in plain-sight. They mostly feed on grasshoppers and are ambush-hunters, unlike other phids.

Mature male

Penultimate female

Totally adorable.

An intense blue female. The colors vary by individual and can be green or gold.
