Trichopelma sp. “Orellana” 1/2” Christmas The tiger stripes and legsize 1 2 Little is know about this spider. These spiders are a small genus of tarantula usually reaching around 2 inches as adults. They tend to be terrestrials that lay down a good amount of webbing. There are no photos of what this one looks like as an adult. I suspect these came from Orellana Province in Ecuador.
