Haploclastus Devamatha (10
''Haploclastus'' is a genus of Indian tarantulas (family Theraphosidae) that was first described by Eugène Simon in 1892. The genus '' Phlogiodes'' has been synonymized with ''Haploclastus'' by some authors. Description They can be distinguished by the deep and procured fovea, with horizontal thornlike hairs in two or three rows above and below the maxillary. These hairs have a long tapering, they are modified and aligned vertically in a "diffuse" pattern on the maxilla. Taxonomy The genus ''Haploclastus'' was first described by Eugène Simon in 1892. In 1899, Reginald Pocock erected the genus ''Phlogiodes''. He described two species, ''Phlogiodes validus'' from a male specimen and ''Phlogiodes robustus'' from a female specimen. The relationship between the genera ''Haploclastus'' and ''Phlogiodes'' has varied; in 1985, Raven sank ''Phlogiodes'' into ''Haploclastus''. In 2010, the two ''Phlogiodes'' species were synonymized and transferred to ''Haploclastus'' as ''Haplocla ...

Haploclastus Validus
''Phlogiodes'' is a genus of spiders in the tarantula family Theraphosidae, found in India. , a single species is accepted, ''Phlogiodes validus''. The species has been transferred back and forth between ''Phlogiodes'' and ''Haploclastus''. Taxonomy The genus ''Phlogiodes'' was erected by Reginald Innes Pocock, Reginald Pocock in 1899. He described two species, ''Phlogiodes validus'' from a male specimen and ''Phlogiodes robustus'' from a female specimen. He considered the male and female to be too different to be the same species. In 1985, Robert Raven sank ''Phlogiodes'' into ''Haploclastus''. In 2010, Pocock's two ''Phlogiodes'' species were Synonym (taxonomy), synonymized and transferred to ''Haploclastus'' as ''Haploclastus validus''. In 2013, ''H. validus'' was restored to ''Phlogiodes'', the placement accepted by the World Spider Catalog . In 2024, the species was again placed in ''Haploclastus''. References

Type Species
In International_Code_of_Zoological_Nomenclature, zoological nomenclature, a type species (''species typica'') is the species name with which the name of a genus or subgenus is considered to be permanently taxonomically associated, i.e., the species that contains the biological Type (biology), type wiktionary:en:specimen, specimen (or specimens). Article 67.1 A similar concept is used for suprageneric groups and called a type genus. In botanical nomenclature, these terms have no formal standing under the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants, code of nomenclature, but are sometimes borrowed from zoological nomenclature. In botany, the type of a genus name is a specimen (or, rarely, an illustration) which is also the type of a species name. The species name with that type can also be referred to as the type of the genus name. Names of genus and family ranks, the various subdivisions of those ranks, and some higher-rank names based on genus names, have suc ...

Theraphosidae Genera
Tarantulas comprise a group of large and often hairy spiders of the Family (biology), family Theraphosidae. , 1,100 species have been identified, with 166 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.

The posterior sternal sigilla are not very deep and are placed near the center. The retrolateral face of the chelicerae has parallel rows of thick, curved setae. The prolateral face of the maxilla features stout black bristles arranged along the suture line. Spines are present on legs II–IV. The spermathecae are mound-shaped. Females carry the egg sac under their chelicerae. Ecology The burrow is typically found on mud walls and embankments along streams, with a tubular extension made ...

Chilobrachys Himalayensis

They are found in India, Myanmar, Malaysia, China, Vietnam, Thailand and Sri Lanka. They are usually medium or large-sized, and they can Stridulation, stridulate by using small spines present on the chelicerae. Identification features They have special Stridulation, stridulating organs in their chelicerae, which are made of short spines. Males have a palpal bulb which ends in a long and slender blade like spine, females have one pair of spermatheca. The anterior eyes form almost a straight line. Their legs have a narrower scapulae at the tip of the metatarsus. Deaths No tarantula is considered deadly, but Chilobrachys have maybe the most potent venom, aside from ''Poecilotheria''. Some cases have been reported where bites by ''Chilobrachys hardwickei'' resulted in gangrene and unconfirmed death. Species it contains thirty-one sp ...
