Bonnetina Papalutlensis
''Bonnetina'' is a genus of Mexican tarantulas that was first described by F. Vol in 2000. Morphology Before the era of genetics and molecular phylogeny, tarantulas were classified based on the presence or absence of physical traits and characteristics. However, tarantulas happen to be excessively homoplastic, meaning the same seemingly unique characteristics have evolved separately rather than from a common ancestor, leading to many misplacements and misidentifications, and this genus is no different. In 2018, a molecular study and phylogenetic analysis by Ortiz, Francke, and Bond aimed to create a timeline in the evolution of ''Bonnetina'' and to address possible monophyly in the genus. They sampled DNA from select taxa, sequencing five nuclear markers and one mitochondrial marker, concluding that ''Bonnetina'' was composed of unrelated species that simply shared physical attributes, with the exception of '' B. juxtantricola''. Only the sexual features were observed not to be ...

Bonnetina Cyaneifemur
Bonnetina cyaneifemur, also known as the Mexican blue femur, is a species of tarantula from the genus Bonnetina. It was first described in 2000 by Fabian Vol. The genus name is in recognition of the French arachnologist, Pierre Bonnet and the species name refers to the dark blue (cyan) color of the spider's femur The femur (; ), or thigh bone, is the proximal bone of the hindlimb in tetrapod vertebrates. The head of the femur articulates with the acetabulum in the pelvic bone forming the hip joint, while the distal part of the femur articulates ...s. It is found in Mexico and has been spotted in the Mountains near Manzanillo. Behavior The spider usually makes a burrow under the topsoil or amongst branches, rocks and other forest floor debris.''Tarantulas of the world: Kleiner Atlas der Vogelspinnen – Band 1''.

Theraphosidae Genera
Tarantulas comprise a group of large and often hairy spiders of the family Theraphosidae. , 1,040 species have been identified, with 156 genera. The term "tarantula" is usually used to describe members of the family Theraphosidae, although many other members of the same infraorder (Mygalomorphae) are commonly referred to as "tarantulas" or "false tarantulas". Some of the more common species have become popular in the exotic pet trade. Many New World species kept as pets have setae known as urticating hairs that can cause irritation to the skin, and in extreme cases, cause damage to the eyes. Overview Like all arthropods, the tarantula is an invertebrate that relies on an exoskeleton for muscular support.Pomeroy, R. (2014, February 4). Pub.

Günter Schmidt (arachnologist)
''For the sexologist, psychotherapist, and social psychologist, see Gunter Schmidt.'' Günter E. W. Schmidt (born 10 May 1926 in Lübeck; died 23 December 2016 in Deutsch Evern) was a German arachnologist and author of a standard German work on tarantulas, ''Die Vogelspinnen'' ("bird-eating spiders"). He has been described as one of the fathers of German arachnology. He studied biology and mostly worked in the pharmaceutical industry until his retirement.Obituary
