- This is one of a number of species known as "Chinese bird spider" and "Chinese earth tiger".
- This Old World Obligate Burrower is from Vietnam and China.
- I have read that it is considered one of the most venomous SPIDERS (not just tarantulas) in the world.
- The carapace is dark yellow-brown; the abdomen is similarly colored, with black stripes running across it and a black stripe down the center of the upper surface.
- The females are said to live up to 30 years!
