nevermind:/ google brings up nothing but articles written about the tarantula
If you read the article, it was just recently found/identified/named by Perez-Miles...they don't just *pop* into the hobby right away, ready for consumption the minute they're discovered so no, you're not going to find them for sale or anything on them. Add to that the fact that they seem to have only a mature male type specimen (and a dead one at that) to go off of and that it hails from Brazil and you've got some pretty slim odds of ever getting one.

read the article again.... it was just published in October 2014. but the caption under the photo in the article says it was first spotted in 2005. from now til then they should have atleast found a few live specimens, if they havnt, then they clearly arnt trying hard at all.
