Description

The Cyriopagopus lividum, also known as the Thai blue tarantula, is a stunning and captivating species that stands out due to its vibrant colours and striking appearance. Native to Southeast Asia, this tarantula is known for its striking blue-hued legs and body, which shimmer in the light, making it one of the most visually stunning tarantulas in the world. As a semi-arboreal species, the Cyriopagopus lividum is often found in the trees or burrows of tropical forests, where it hunts small prey. While its bold colours and intimidating appearance may seem off-putting, it is a relatively shy and reclusive species, making it a fascinating subject for arachnid enthusiasts.
