Another bite ;)
Well, I have just been bitten by a 1"+ Pterinochilus chordatus, at the middle joint of the index finger. There was an immediate sharp prick, and that turned into a constant sharp stinging pain, which is currently still present. It is 16 minutes post-bite as I type this. Nothing major yet. I'll be waiting to see if I develop any muscle cramping, as with the H. maculata and S. calceatum.
Edit:
1 hour 45 minutes post-bite: all redness and swelling have vanished (there wasn't much swelling to begin with, though the area did turn red). The sharp pain now only returns sporadically.
The next day: Nothing more at the bite site; no muscle cramping - yet.
