So this was sold to me as Holothele longipes Its molted a few times and I had to rehouse due to mold. Honestly it doesnt really look like the other slings I've seen. It looks more like a haplopelma or Cyriopagopus species. I know it's impossible to tell a species at this size but what do you all think about possible genus?

It's just over an inch.

Hi
I have H. Longipes and this isn't it. I also have a few cyriopagopus and like you sat I think it's defo an OW sling. It looks very much like Ornithoctonus aureotibialis or Thai gold fringe. It's difficult to tell as they look very similar at that stage. My gold fringe is larger now but looked exactly like that when it was a sling. Mine is particularly nasty
