The Tarantula Bibliography :: JUNE 2015 release

My Tarantula Bibliography has been updated. At present the family Theraphosidae is comprised of 966 species in 128(129*) genera.
* my catalog doesn't recognize Schmidt's resurrection of Davus as it was improperly published, but a 2014 species described as Davus mozinni made it necessary to add a Davus page to contain my explanation for genus exclusion and hold this new species until proper work is published.

I'm surprised you added Orphnaecus kwebaburdus.

As of June 1st, The World Spider Catalog now lists Cyclosternum as its own genus. The site credits Estrada-Alvarez (2014), and not Schmidt, with removing the genus from the synonymy of Davus.
