Guess these belong here, for now at least.

Young female Homeomma sp. "blue" (the large one).

I'm so sorry about that but this looks more as Euathlus pulcherimaklaasi then Homeomma.

Those are beautiful. Almost like a G.pulchripes but the stripes aren't as pronounced and the carapace looks a bit more shiny.

This is what I believe is Homeomma sp. "blue" I'm still not a hundred percent sure yet though.





Then I took one without flash

I forgot one. Its a little older but she's still huge. I'd say close to 7"

Hi Fred , your spider looks alot like Lasiodorides striatus to me. 7 inches seems to big for Homeomma as well.

Later, Tom

Seems like its spelled Homoeomma anyways and this whole thread is just a big mistake haha. I thought there was another thread on these that I couldn't find...

I agree! Originially I thought she was an L striatus, and after posting numerous pictures of her, a lot of people have suggested that she's is either Hommoeomma sp "blue" or some typle of thrixopelma. ahh I'm confused now, oh well she's an awesome spider.

That is Lasiodorides striatus, and not Homoeomma sp or Thrixopelma

Hello Anastasia & Philth

SCHMIDT & ANTONELLI described L. striatus with 2 Stripes at Patella and Tibia and 1 stripe at Metatarsus. They also described the color as dark brown or black w a metallic cooper shine (especially beside the eyes) and long red hair at the Opisthosoma.

In my opinion L. striatus should look a little bit like that:
