I LOVE these spiders! I found 3 of them under a large pile of logs in Argentina, but googling hasnīt produced much information on them, other than that they can reach 10 cm and they are aggressive but not dangerous (but having stroked the back of one with my finger I donīt think they're very aggressive at all). Does anyone know much about these beautifull spiders here? Are they sold in the pet trade?

Thanks in advance ...

I got some P. pithagoricus, awesome spider
In my experience, they don't like it too humid, and reproduce like rabbits:eek:
