Nhandu
''Nhandu'' is a genus of South American tarantulas that was first described by S. Lucas in 1983. ''Brazilopelma'' was synonymized with it in 2001. Diagnosis They can be distinguished by the lack of stridulating organs, extension of the scopula on the metatarsus. They can also further be distinguished by the lack of spurs on the males and the palpal bulb with short embolus. Females also own a distinct spermatheca morphology.

Nhandu Coloratovillosus
''Nhandu coloratovillosus'' also known as the Brazilian black & white tarantula or the bombardier tarantula, is a species of tarantula first described by Günter Schmidt in 1998. They are found in the grasslands of Brazil and Paraguay, and are terrestrial tarantulas. Description Females live 15 years, while males only to 4 years. Their carapace is black, with an alternating black and white pattern, starting with black and ending with black. Their legs and opisthosoma are covered in orange hairs, making the white parts of the legs look dirty. Their opisthosoma is black covered in long orange hairs. Habitat They are found in the grasslands of Brazil and Paraguay. These grasslands may reach temperatures of up to 35 °C, and are in the negatives during winter. In these grasslands there is an average yearly rainfall of 1,200mm. Behavior They are terrestrial tarantulas, each with their own personality. Some are incredibly docile, while others are way more nervous and skit ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Theraphosidae Genera
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.

Type Species
In zoological nomenclature, a type species (''species typica'') is the species name with which the name of a genus or subgenus is considered to be permanently taxonomically associated, i.e., the species that contains the biological type specimen(s). Article 67.1 A similar concept is used for suprageneric groups and called a type genus. In botanical nomenclature, these terms have no formal standing under the code of nomenclature, but are sometimes borrowed from zoological nomenclature. In botany, the type of a genus name is a specimen (or, rarely, an illustration) which is also the type of a species name. The species name that has that type can also be referred to as the type of the genus name. Names of genus and family ranks, the various subdivisions of those ranks, and some higher-rank names based on genus names, have such types.

Species
In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of biodiversity. A species is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction. Other ways of defining species include their karyotype, DNA sequence, morphology, behaviour or ecological niche. In addition, paleontologists use the concept of the chronospecies since fossil reproduction cannot be examined. The most recent rigorous estimate for the total number of species of eukaryotes is between 8 and 8.7 million. However, only about 14% of these had been described by 2011. All species (except viruses) are given a two-part name, a "binomial". The first part of a binomial is the genus to which the species belongs. The second part is called the specific name or the specific epithet (in botanical nomenclature, also sometimes i ...
