Description
Scientific Name: Heterothele gabonensis
Common Names: Gabon Blue Dwarf Baboon
There isn’t much information on this species of dwarf Baboon Spider. Our sources suggest that they are much like Heterothele villosella in that they are burrowers and also have communal tendencies with one explorer studying them over an extended period and finding that they can co-habitate.
The colors on this species have much darker tones than H. villosella and also displays a sold amount of dark blue in the right lighting, a really cool old world species that also happens to be a dwarf species. They are said to be nervous and skittish and will throw a threat display at any sign of danger, but will run like the wind rather than bite, but don’t take too many chances or you could have some new piercings…
