Congratulations Everyone!
Some beauties there!
I'm looking forward to next year already!!David Attenborough:
‘It seems to me that the issue of conservation of the natural world is something that can unite humanity if people know enough about it. Persuade them to change the way in which they behave, to change the view that gross materialism and the search for material wealth is not the only thing in life.’Comment

Some well deserved winner there. Well done to all the winners!

nice pics! except the one of me!
the imperator doesn't look cavimanus to me...pedipalps are too granulated i think?! i could be wrong though!Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars... Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

Not that bad, i've seen worse..... especially that one of you in the pink tutu and purple cowboy hatOriginally posted by James Box View Postnice pics! except the one of me!
aye, just had good look and the telsons that lighter brown colour indicating imperatorOriginally posted by James Box View Post
P. imperator= telson a lighter colour (normally tan) than metasoma, heavily granulated outer face of chela, black colour overall (with blue tinge sometimes)
P. cavimanus= telson the same colour (or as close as) as metasoma, ungranulated appearence to outer face of chela, overall more brown colour.Don't forget to learn what you can, when you can, where you can.
