Hi Tarantula experts! I wonder if you could help me - I spotted an amazingly colourful tarantula recently when I was holidaying in Bahia, Northeast Brazil.
The closest thing I can find on the internet is the Greenbottle blue Tarantula (Chromatopelma cyaneopubescen), but to be honest that doesn't look that similar. Also, Wikipedia says that it is found in Venezuela, a loooong way from Bahia. Have I discovered a (beautiful) new species?
I have higher-res images if that would help. Thanks,
Tom
