Vitalius Cristatus

[LanceHutchings]

Hi all been out of the hobby for a few years now and now putting my foot back into the pool !!

Seen a few spiders Id like to start re-collecting but not sure if they are the same species re-named or totally different species:

Vitalius Cristatus

Lasiodora Cristatus

Anyone able to say if they are the same species or not !!

Thanks in advance

Lance

They are the same species, but are not known by either name anymore. It's now Nhandu chromatus


Fell into that trap when i bought one that was still with the old name last year.

Cheers
