Old World 4 species Ornithoctonus — commonly said as or-nith-OK-toh-nus

Southeast Asian fossorials, and part of the tangled Haplopelma and Cyriopagopus reshuffle that has made this whole corner of the trade a naming problem. O. aureotibialis and O. costalis are the names that move.

Deep burrowers, fast, defensive, and carrying venom that is a genuine concern rather than a theoretical one. Give them substrate depth and expect to see very little. The gold banding on aureotibialis is sharp on a fresh molt.

Thai and Malaysian material moves irregularly, so prices swing with import timing rather than breeding cycles. That is a different volatility pattern than most tarantula genera and it means availability, not price, is usually the binding constraint.

Rarity BETA Rarity is supply, and only supply: the tier is how many sellers have ever carried a species, and for a single seller, how many separate listings. Price is not part of it, and neither is how recently it appeared. Tiers are given to tarantula species only.
