Pamphobeteus sp. Machala 1”

Pamphobeteus sp. Machala 1”size 1 These fast growing large terrestrial spiders are an undescibed species known from southwestern Ecuador. These spiders have been bred in captivity for decades but are still unknown to science. Females are a dark velevet brown color while the males turn a brilliant purple color upon maturity. If you are considering a Pamphobeteus for the first time, you wont be disappointed. They are all around fun spiders to raise and keep.

I’ll never forget the first time I saw an adult female

The genus Guyruita was established in 2007 and means “to go under rocks” that was derived from the language of the Brazilian Tupi Indians

Then in 2003 Fernando Pérez-Miles & Arturo Locht transferred this spider to the Homoeomma genus

These spiders have it all

These were quite expensive when they first came to the hobby

Some people have had success keeping these communally

that name is the senior synonym which becomes the accepted name

If you are considering a Pamphobeteus for the first time

but unique and noticeably different

size 1/8”

However I have seen some get rather update when they are disturbed
