Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...

Acanthoscurria Theraphosoides
''Acanthoscurria theraphosoides'' is a species of spider from the family Theraphosidae (tarantulas), found in Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, and French Guiana. Description F. O. Pickard-Cambridge collected a mature female as his reference specimen (holotype) during his trip to the Lower Amazon, specifically in Pará state, Brazil. He called the species ''Acanthoscurria brocklehursti'', now regarded as synonymous with ''A. theraphosoides''. The specimen was deposited in the Natural History Museum, London. He describes the species from his own live observations as having "Carapace deep brown, clothed with grey-brown velvety pubescence" and "legs entirely clothed with rich chocolate-brown pubescence and long scattered rufous hairs." Taxonomy ''Acanthopalpus theraphosoides'' was first described by Carl Ludwig Doleschall in 1871. Separately, ''Acanthoscurria brocklehursti'' was described by F. O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1896.

Acanthoscurria Simoensi
''Acanthoscurria simoensi'' is a species of tarantula spider found in Guyana, French Guiana, and Brazil Brazil ( pt, Brasil; ), officially the Federative Republic of Brazil (Portuguese: ), is the largest country in both South America and Latin America. At and with over 217 million people, Brazil is the world's fifth-largest country by area ..., first described from French Guiana in 2000. The species has been traded in the exotic pet hobby as "Para Mongo Zebra” under spurious scientific names such as 'fracta'. The common name partly relates to the colouration where the females of the species have dark bodies with light coloured linear markings on legs. Notably, like in many other tarantulas with strong sexual dimorpsim, adult males of the species have a different general appearance with a more rusty metallic colouration and comparatively weak linear markings on the legs.
