Hapalotremus (Tarantulas)

Hapalotremus is a lesser-known genus of South American tarantulas, primarily found in Argentina, Peru, and Bolivia. These terrestrial or
semi-fossorial spiders often inhabit mountainous or forested regions and are known for their defensive posture and beautiful coloration.

While not commonly found in the pet trade, their behavior and habitat needs make them an interesting genus for intermediate to advanced hobbyists.
