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.

Tarantulas comprise a group of large and often hairy spiders of the family Theraphosidae. [2] As of December 2023, 1,100 species have been identified, with 166 genera. [3] 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".
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.
Hapalotremus is a genus of South American tarantulas in the Theraphosinae subfamily that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1903. [2] They have red or white Type III urticating (relatively long, thin) hairs, [3] up to 1.2 millimetres (0.047 in), with a fine point and barbs along at least half of the lower part.
The labium is similar in structure to the maxilla, but with the appendages of the two sides fused by the midline, so they come to form a median plate. The basal part of the labium, equivalent to the maxillary cardines and possibly including a part of the sternum of the labial segment, is called the postmentum.
Magmatism is the emplacement of magma within and at the surface of the outer layers of a terrestrial planet, which solidifies as igneous rocks. It does so through magmatic activity or igneous activity, the production, intrusion and extrusion of magma or lava. Volcanism is the surface expression of magmatism.
