African huntsman spiders, large, flat, and bark-dwelling, trading a step behind their Asian relatives on name recognition and nothing else.
Extremely fast, crevice-flattening, and not medically serious, which leaves containment as the entire husbandry conversation: vertical bark, cross ventilation, and an enclosure opened with intent. The ghost-pale and forest-dark species keep identically.
West and Central African wild-caught material arrives in thin irregular pulses, species identification depends on the exporter, and the genus's obscurity keeps listings sparse. The huntsman market rule applies: named species carry premiums over generic stock for the same keeping experience, and availability rather than price decides what a buyer actually gets.
