Okay Chun, I'll send u the photo.. It could be a tarantula, because this spider is more aggressive than hunstman.. Thanks a lot Chun & Mark :)
Yes, Mark.The way it pose, the thick hairs, the long palps and cheliceraemakes it look more like a tarantula than a huntsman.Need a clear picture of it's eyes to safely confirm that it is a tarantula.
You might be right Chun... thicker legs, bigger fangs, spinnerets, it looks very like Richard Seaman's Sulawesi model http://www.richard-seaman.com/Arthropods...
Can you share with me a high resolution photo showing it's eyes?That would be really helpful to confirm whether it is a Huntsman or a Tarantula.
Thanks Chun! Is that really a tarantula? Or Huntsman spider?
Congratulations!You got yourself a tarantula!
Thanks Mark.. Maybe, or some kind of parasite..
Sure looks like a huntsman (carrying mites?)
