Aphonopelma eutylenum known commonly as the California Ebony Tarantula and Aphonopelma reversum known as the San Diego Bronze Tarantula. Both species are considered to be semi-arid species and are terrestrial in habitat requirements. Being terrestrial species they are burrowers.
For starters its forelegs would identify it as an arboreal species due to them being long and flattened in appearance. This is common for the arboreal species of tarantulas. The Skeleton Tarantula is a fossorial species that burrows. They possess urticating hairs, as do all tarantula species.
Since recorded time spiders in general have been looked upon by the majority of earth’s populations as evil creatures to be feared and better yet smashed with the heel of a shoe rather than left to their own devices.
