Fringed ornamental tarantula
The fringed ornamental tarantula is a large spider that lives high in trees. It is found only in Sri Lanka, and its bright, patterned body makes it one of the most striking tarantulas. Its bite is considered medically significant, so it is worth knowing about.1

Maziviro ayo
- The top of the body (carapace) is greenish yellow or purplish.1
- Females have yellow undersides, and the thighs of the third and fourth pairs of legs are black with a large blue-grey spot.1
- Males are greenish brown, and their markings are less prominent.1
- Females can reach a legspan of about 25 cm.1
Inowanzovhiringidzwa ne: It is easily told apart from other tiger spiders by its greenish yellow or purplish top side.1

The venom may cause intense pain and extreme muscle cramping. This is judged from the experiences of keepers who have been bitten by this species, rather than from recorded cases of human harm.1

Chokwadi
It may live in a mutually beneficial relationship with frogs such as Ramanella nagaoi, sharing tree holes that can contain eggs or juveniles from the spider, the frog, or both.1
In a related observation, a frog (Chiasmocleis ventrimaculata) and a different tarantula (Xenesthis immanis) were seen together, with the spider protecting the frog from predators and the frog guarding the spider's eggs from ants.1
When tree holes are scarce, several of these spiders may live together in the same tree.1
Its legspan is probably the second largest in its genus, behind Poecilotheria rufilata.1
