The latin name is correct!
As for keeping, check my thread titled 'T's that web' in this section.
Some info on the bottle in there.

They have a nervous disposition most of the time.. TBH, mines fine and iv no concern over holding him.. I wouldnt recommend this with every specimin as yours could be a more nervous one (If you get one)
I dont think they would bite any more than an average Brachypelma.. they just run off, lol

I wouldnt say any T is really quick, mines grown ok, nothing special though, not like the P.cambrigei, mine is of a nervous disposition

I would recommend a 1inch legspan, then you can see the colour change all the way thorugh, they are one of the best to raise from slings, hardy and beautiful.
You will regret it if you miss the opportunity to see the colour change
