I agree Citharischius crawshayi is my all time favorite scientific name, and my all time favorite T.
Latin names aren't there to be pretty usually. I can pronounce Citharsichius crawshayi, but I remember not being able to figure out how to say it when I was newer to the hobby. That's part of the fun though. Pelinobius muticus doesn't leave enough room for error so that I can embarrass myself when talking to someone who knows how to properly pronounce a latin name.
Everyone will get used to it. They got over G. aureostriata to G. pulchripes. Cyriopagopus sp. "Singapore blue" to L. violaceopes. Sounds like A. diversipes may get moved to Iridopelma. T's getting renamed is just part of the hobby
True . . . I think Iridopelma needs to be in the Avic genus haha . They look so similar ! Soon they are gonna change the roseas name - Wait they already did :wall:Everyone will get used to it. They got over G. aureostriata to G. pulchripes. Cyriopagopus sp. "Singapore blue" to L. violaceopes. Sounds like A. diversipes may get moved to Iridopelma.

They got over G. aureostriata to G. pulchripes. Cyriopagopus sp. "Singapore blue" to L. violaceopes. Sounds like A. diversipes may get moved to Iridopelma.
