Chaetopelma Altugkadirorum
''Chaetopelma altugkadirorum'' is a small, Old World tarantula. This species is found in the Eastern Mediterranean, in border area of Turkey and Syria. The species closely resembles '' Chaetopelma olivaceum'' a widespread species in the region. It was first described by British arachnologists Richard C. Gallon, Ray Gabriel, and Guy Tansley in 2012. With the description of this new species the genus ''Chaetopelma'' now comprises five species.Richard C. Gallon, Ray Gabriel & Guy Tansley (2012)A new ''Chaetopelma'' species from the eastern Mediterranean (Araneae, Theraphosidae, Ischnocolinae), Journal of the British Tarantula Society. 27(4): 128-139) Habitat ''Chaetopelma altugkadirorum'' is found within burrows (up to 50 cm in depth) in light pine forest of Yayladağı district of Hatay Province of Turkey and Ras al-Bassit of Syria. Burrows were often observed in association with rotten pine stumps, with the burrow excavated along the decaying remains of the stump’s root ...

Chaetopelma Olivaceum
''Chaetopelma olivaceum'' is a species of mygalomorph spider, belonging to the tarantula family (Theraphosidae). It has many synonyms, including ''Ischnocolus jerusalemensis''. Common names used include black furry, black tarantula and Middle East gold. Range and habitat The species is found in Cyprus, Turkey, Sudan, Egypt and the Middle East. It is very common inside homes in Israel. Description The body length is approximately 2.5 cm for adult males and 5 cm or larger for females. pp. 21–22 It is one of the largest spiders in Israel. The color varies between black, gray and brown dark; they tend to be paler in the cooler more forested regions of their range and darker in the southern more arid areas. The body is covered with tiny hairs and is shiny and velvety. There are variations in appearance and size throughout the range. Their food consists of insects and even small mice and young lizards. The species is sexually dimorphic: the female is larger than the ...

Ischnocolus Jickelii
''Ischnocolus jickelii'' is a small, old-world tarantula. It is found in Aden, Djibouti, Ethiopia, the United Arab Emirates and Somalia. It was first described by Ludwig Carl Christian Koch, Ludwig Koch in 1875. In 1890, French Arachnology, arachnologist Eugène Simon described ''Chaetopelma adenense''. In 2008, José Paulo L. Guadanucci, José Guadanucci and Richard C. Gallon decided that these were the same species, making Simon's ''Chaetopelma adenense'' a Synonym (taxonomy), synonym. References

Tarantula
Tarantulas comprise a group of large and often hairy spiders of the family Theraphosidae. , 1,040 species have been identified, with 156 genera. The term "tarantula" is usually used to describe members of the family Theraphosidae, although many other members of the same infraorder (Mygalomorphae) are commonly referred to as "tarantulas" or "false tarantulas". Some of the more common species have become popular in the exotic pet trade. Many New World species kept as pets have setae known as urticating hairs that can cause irritation to the skin, and in extreme cases, cause damage to the eyes. Overview Like all arthropods, the tarantula is an invertebrate that relies on an exoskeleton for muscular support.Pomeroy, R. (2014, February 4). Pub.

Spermatheca
The spermatheca (pronounced plural: spermathecae ), also called receptaculum seminis (plural: receptacula seminis), is an organ of the female reproductive tract in insects, e.g. ants, bees, some molluscs, oligochaeta worms and certain other invertebrates and vertebrates. Its purpose is to receive and store sperm from the male or, in the case of hermaphrodites, the male component of the body. Spermathecae can sometimes be the site of fertilization when the oocytes are sufficiently developed. Some species of animal have multiple spermathecae. For example, certain species of earthworms have four pairs of spermathecae—one pair each in the 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th segments. The spermathecae receive and store the spermatozoa of another earthworm during copulation. They are lined with epithelium and are variable in shape: some are thin, heavily coiled tubes, while others are vague outpocketings from the main reproductive tract. It is one of the many variations in sexual reproduct ...
