Metriopelma zebratum
The abdomen banding pattern shows is zebratum, two thin orange bands in front of the urticating hair patch, which do not join together and do not merge to give an orange spot anterior to the urticating patch. It looks to be an adult female holding her eggsac. It also has a cut on leg2 as there is a spot of haemolymph.
La encontré en Barbacoas de Puriscal, se encontraba al pie de unas matas de banano, el saco que lleva con ella según me dicen es donde transporta sus crías
Muy buenas fotos!
Bienvenido
