[QUOTE="KezyGLA, post: 126536, member: 14343"] I think you mean Grammostola quirogai. This species is from Uruguay. The region of forest and scrubland in Brasil that G. pulchra are found overlaps some of quirogai territory over the border. It is believed that WC specimens of quirogai were captured and sold on as pulchra by hunters who didnt know any better. There are definately a good amount of them in the hobby that are being labelled mistakenly as pulchra. This may also be why people have difficulty breeding this species successfully, as they are trying to pair adults of different species. There certainly is a small problem here in that respect. However, the recent broods are G. pulchra :) [/QUOTE]
