Entre Rios Tarantula
Grammostola iheringi
The Entre Rios tarantula is a hobby name for Grammostola iheringi, currently recorded from Brazil and Uruguay. Adults have dark, blue-black legs and conspicuous reddish abdominal hairs. It is a large terrestrial species; a regional trade name alone does not establish where a particular animal originated.
Provide a secure, ventilated ground-level enclosure with substrate, a sheltered retreat and drinking water. Offer appropriately sized insects and leave it undisturbed during molts. Avoid handling, especially above a hard surface. Females lay eggs in a silk sac.
