The Theraphosinae are a large subfamily of Mygalomorphae spiders in the family Theraphosidae found primarily in the Neotropical realm. Genera
Theraphosa apophysis generally resembles Theraphosa blondi, and reaches a similar size. [3] Young T. apophysis spiders have pink shading at the end of each leg, which fades with each moult. [4]
Theraphosa is a genus of South American tarantulas that was first described by Charles Athanase Walckenaer in 1805. The Theraphosa spiders are some of the largest known to science.
Brachypelma is a genus of spiders in the family Theraphosidae (tarantulas). They may have bodies up to 6 cm (2 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) long with legs of similar or greater lengths. Some species have brightly colored legs, with red or orange marks and rings.
Hemirrhagus is a genus of Mexican tarantulas that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1903. [3] It is considered a senior synonym of Spelopelma. [2] Species of the genus Hemirrhagus are 5 to 12 cm long, usually black in colour, the urticating hairs on the opisthosoma are arranged in one dorsomedian patch, two dorsal paramedian patches, or two lateral patches.
Bistriopelma has two distinctive patches of Type III urticating setae, which are located dorsolaterally on the abdomen, each with a long stripe of thicker setae, which runs diagonally to the longitudinal body axis.
A further control on the morphology and characteristics of a deposit is the water to magma ratio. It is considered that the products of phreatomagmatic eruptions are fine grained and poorly sorted where the magma/water ratio is high, but when there is a lower magma/water ratio the deposits may be coarser and better sorted.

The sole species was described in 2002 by Marc Tesmoingt and Gunter Schmidt as Stenotarsus scissistylus.However, the genus name was found to be occupied by the cold-enduring beetle, Stenotarsus, [3] and the name was changed to Neostenotarsus scissistylus.
