Skeleton tarantula

Ephebopus murinus
Ka lebitso: The common name comes from the skeleton-like markings on its legs. The scientific name Ephebopus means 'youthful foot' in Greek, and murinus means 'mouse-coloured' in Latin.1

When threatened, it brushes urticating hairs off its palps (the small leg-like organs near the mouth) by rubbing them against its chelicerae (jaw parts). It will also rise up and show its fangs.1

Dintlha

1

Its urticating hairs grow on its palps, not on its abdomen as they do in most New World tarantulas.1

2

It is a fast and aggressive species that will readily rise up and present its fangs to a predator.1

3

It builds a heavily webbed burrow under the topsoil, or among branches, rocks and other forest floor debris.1

4

Most members of its subfamily live in trees, but this species lives mainly on or near the forest floor.1
