Grammostola Anthracina

Grammostola Anthracina is a species of spider belonging to the family Theraphosidae (tarantulas). It is found in Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil, and Argentina. They prefer to reside in scrubs, desert regions, and grasslands, just like other tarantulas do. Despite their gorgeous red appearance, size, and behavior, which make them quite popular among spider petters, it is nevertheless advisable to avoid handling them because their bite can sting very badly. The typical diet of moths, grasshoppers, lizards, cockroaches, mealworms, etc. is also part of their diet.

The body of Grammostola anthracene is completely brown, and females have lengthy spermathecae with a rounded apex. A female's body is around 45 mm long, with the fourth (final) leg being the longest at 60 mm. Stridulatory hairs can be seen on the first leg's coxa's forward-facing side. On the top surface of the abdomen, there are irritating hairs of types III and IV. The genus Grammostola is distinguished by its spermathecae, stridulatory hairs, and urticating hairs.
