Lasiodorides striatus often goes by "Orange striped birdeater." There's also Acanthoscurria juruenicola, which goes by Brazilian orange banded.

Here's my L. striatus:

Peruvian Orange Striped

Yeah, I really like those. They were a dime a dozen back in '97,'98,'99 and then they vanished. I haven't seen those on the market for a while. I tried breeding mine several times but the female (the one I posted) ate the males within an hour.
I never did find out the full latin, only Paraphysa sp.

Thanks! Yeah, 4" female, I bought her June 20th during a trip to Chicago land. I'd wanted one forever!

I got your care sheet. For a large number of T's a semi ventilated cage with damp substrate and a large water dish and hide will do just fine. If it seems to seek out water, restrict the ventilation....If not let the substrate dry and and keep the dish fresh and full-------
