Hysterocrates crassipes |
It is a burrowing species, often sold by pet stores under the name Hysterocrates gigas. Although these tarantulas both come from Cameroon, Hysterocrates crassipes does not turn red before molting, and has an enlarged tibia on leg pair IV into adulthood, whereas H. gigas does not keep these "enlarged" (thick) tibia. Also, H. crassipes do not get as large as H. gigas.[citation needed]
