This Psalmopoeus irminia, commonly known as the Venezuelan Suntiger Tarantula, is a striking arboreal New World species known for its velvety black coloration and vivid orange striping. At approximately ¾”, this sling is already beginning to show early flashes of its iconic patterning.

 

Native to the humid rainforests of Venezuela, this tarantula is fast, defensive, and highly reclusive — making it best suited for intermediate to advanced keepers. Unlike most New World tarantulas, P. irminia lacks urticating hairs and instead relies on speed and threat postures when disturbed. It thrives in vertical enclosures with ample webbing anchor points and dense décor.
