TERRESTRIAL GRAB N GO KIT: Ephebopus cyanognathus (Blue Fang Skeleton) 1.5"+
Ephebopus cyanognathus, commonly known as the Blue Fang Tarantula, is one of the most unique and visually captivating New World species. Native to the humid lowland rainforests of French Guiana and northern Brazil, this medium-sized fossorial tarantula is instantly recognizable by its iridescent metallic-blue chelicerae (“fangs”)—a feature unlike any other species in the hobby. Its body displays rich mahogany and olive tones with golden leg banding and a dark velvety abdomen, creating a striking contrast when the fangs are exposed in defensive postures or during feeding. In the wild, E. cyanognathus constructs silk-lined burrows in moist, shaded areas of the forest floor, often reinforced with webbing and leaf litter. It is fast, secretive, and capable of defensive displays, making it best suited for experienced keepers. In captivity, it thrives in deep, damp substrate with high humidity and stable warmth, rewarding attentive care with stunning coloration and fascinating burrowing behavior.
