I have a couple G. pulchras. All of them molted and one I took its molt to put under a microscope.
I found that the particular one looks female but than realized that there was no reference. Does anyone have what a Gp's spermathecae looks like?
I would think that its similar to the other grammostola's. (Reference http://tarantulas.tropica.ru/en/node/586#Chel )
So anyway heres a microscope picture and the size of the T. Its the second time I sexed this particular one female via molt under a microscope. Magnified 100X
Out of the 3 I have, this one is my favorite so I am hoping its a female. She is super super calm!
The only reference I can find on the G. pulchra is a ventral shot of a freshly molted male. (Reference Post #60 http://www.arachnoboards.com/ab/showthread.php?p=802439&highlight=g+pulchra#post802439)
