One New World genus that don't have urticating hairs are the Psalmopoeus which are arboreal and I recommend the cambridgei as the tend to be less skittish and more visible although not a colourful as the irminia.A couple of Old World Ts that are fairly calm are the beautiful black Phormingochilus arboricola, another arboreal and a ground dweller that doesn't hide away too much is the Orphnaecus sp negros.</blockquote>
