Yeah. Shame, think they were on Thomas Vinnman's table.

They are not junodi, A.junodi are twice the size, the last real A.junodi I saw where 20cm+ where these probably max at about 12cm. Real junodi come from further South and can not be legally imported. They are what is known as Augacephalus sp. " Mozambique" are are undescribed. Augacephalus species. Males possess tibial spurs and, unlike Augacephalus breyeri, has a pale sub-abdominal band.

These have been sold as A.junodi by German dealers, though these are obviously not Junodi so can only assume the incorrect name is given to them to help them sell. I saw Thomas Vinmann selling these as A.junodi at the BTS though I have also seen him selling them same spiders as Harpatrica sp.

Either way it is a nice African species that could popular in time as they look like a mix a between a ceratogyrus a p.murinus. A definetely one of the rarer African species.

Right, Dispite the fact this is a classified post, and forum rules continue to be broken, and dispite the fact I (we) were ridiculed for basing an ID on photo evidence, and dispite the fact we trust our supplier who has thus far not made any errors....

...I (we) do listen to the concearns of others who appear to be knowledgeable and we do react accordingly.

So, for that reason, I am going to request this thread be closed, and re advertise them as sp. Mozambique, pending there arrival with us and closer physical examination.

The differences between the two are very small, but when physicly here, should be a relativly simple procedure to ID correctly.

Now if someone would like to PM me with details as to why A junodi are illegal to import, then I can ofcourse supply that info to my supplier in an attempt to clarify the situation.

Anyone who has reserved any, are more than welcome to PM me and cancel if they wish, with any monies refunded in full.
