Plesiopelma
''Plesiopelma'' is a genus of South American tarantulas that was first described by Reginald Innes Pocock in 1901. ''Plesiopelma'' species are particularly abundant along mountainous ranges, frequently living under stones. Both males and females live in silk tubes under stones with aggregate spatial distribution. The walls of these tunnels are covered by waterproof silk, protecting them from floods. In addition, there is a uniform saturated microclimate inside the tunnel, which protects the spiders from dehydration. Species it contains eleven species, found in Paraguay, Uruguay, Brazil, Venezuela, and Argentina: *''Plesiopelma aspidosperma'' Ferretti & Barneche, 2013 – Argentina *''Plesiopelma gertschi'' (Caporiacco, 1955) – Venezuela *''Plesiopelma imperatrix'' Piza, 1976 – Brazil *''Plesiopelma insulare'' ( Mello-Leitão, 1923) – Brazil *''Plesiopelma longisternale'' (Schiapelli & Gerschman, 1942) – Argentina, Uruguay *''Plesiopelma minense'' (Mello-Leitão, 1943) – ...

Plesiopelma Paganoi
''Plesiopelma paganoi'' is a tarantula in the ''Plesiopelma'' genus, this tarantula was first described by Nelson Ferretti and Jorge Barneche in 2014. It is named in honor of Luis G. Pagano, Argentinean ornithologist who helped to collect this species. It is found in Argentina, in the Salta province, next to the south Bolivia border. Description ''Plesiopelma paganoi'' differs from most of the ''Plesiopelma'' genus, except from '' P. insulare'', by the high number of labial and maxillary cuspules and absence of spiniform hairs on the retrolateral face of cymbium. It differs from it because the shape of the palpal bulb, which is a slender shape, shorter with a strongly curved embolus. Its carapace and legs are dorsally black with whitish hairs on carapace border, and the abdomen is dorsally black with reddish setae. Habitat ''Plesiopelma paganoi'' was found only in the Yungas eco-region in high cloud forest areas. A juvenile was found at the piedmont jungle in the tiny crevic ...
