One of the species Lamarck included in his new genus was Avicularia canceridea, which included Aranea avicularia, first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. Araneologists continued to use the name Mygale, although this had been used for genus of mammals in 1800, so was not available for Latreille to use for spiders.
The name is based on the family name "Aviculariidae", a junior synonym of Theraphosidae, [6] ultimately deriving from the genus Avicularia. The Atypoidea retain some vestiges of abdominal segmentation in the form of dorsal tergites; the Avicularioidea lack these. Relationships within the Avicularioidea are not settled as of September 2018.
The earliest equivalent to the modern subfamily Aviculariinae is considered to be Simon's 1889 tribe Aviculariae, [1] which included three genera: Avicularia, Tapinauchenius and Scodra (now Stromatopelma). [3] The circumscription of the subfamily has varied considerably.

Previously placed in the genus Avicularia, C. versicolor is native to Martinique in the Caribbean Sea. [3] Antilles pinktoe tarantulas are arboreal (tree-dwelling). They spin elaborate funnel webs in which they spend most of their time. Spiderlings of C. versicolor are bright blue with a black tree trunk pattern on the abdomen.
Avicularia avicularia, sometimes called the pinktoe tarantula, is a species of tarantula native from Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana and Trinidad and Tobago to Peru, Bolivia and Brazil. [1] This species is sometimes called the Guyana pinktoe, or South American pinktoe.
The avicularium (pl. avicularia) in cheilostome bryozoans is a modified, non-feeding zooid. The operculum, which normally closes the orifice when the zooids tentacles are retracted, has been modified to become a mandible. Strong muscles operate it. The polypide is greatly reduced, and the individual receives nourishment from neighboring zooids ...
