The name should be Eurypelma spinicrus, an old name for Citharacanthus spinicrus. Whether or not that spider is indeed C. spinicrus, I don't know.

I think someone somewhere is turning those things out in bulk. My dad bought me a shadowboxed, preserved E. spinicrus from some gun show in Texas (I know, right?) It seemed a bit strange to me that it wasn't some local species like A. anax or hentzi. I guess they're being "made" somewhere over in farawayland and imported. Mine is coated in like, creosote or something. It's all black and smells like... well, like creosote.
