Very nice addition! I just got a boehmei recently too.
Congrats on the new additions... what are the common names? (for someone that's more in to scales :p)
Also, please reduce your signature to the maximum allowance of 4 vertical lines (this includes spaces and special characters).

oops sorry linds. i'll fix that...
i don't remember the common names, lol. i used to be all about the common names, but with t's it's a LOT different than when i was more into herps. the scientific name is the only way to know for sure what type of t someone is talking about, because so many people and places have different common names for each t.
weird but true.

@Emily Fisher: WHERE have you been??? LOL
I was thinking of you just the other day, and did a search of your name to see if you were still alive...your last post was a month ago...I was worried all your critters ate you up in your sleep or something, LOL.
Thanks for the pic of your new wierd bug. I have no idea what Dita is, though, I'll have to do a google search...:)
@ Linds
Hi, some common names of the spiders above are
a rosehair (red phase possibly)
stripe leg/skeleton/zebra (take your pick, there are many common names of A.seemanni)
giant banded knee
bloodleg/flameleg/etc...so many names...
Its just so darn confusing when someone says that got a blue/red/brown spotted/striped/banded/tricolored birdeating goliath giant treespider....meh, sure makes you know which spider I mean, huh?
I don't know if the C.huahini HAS a common name...we can call it the Mud-colored Mean Burrowing Ankle-biting Birdeater That Goon Warned Emily Not To Get.....
hahahahahahahahaha
I don't take my advice either, Em...because now I want a lividum, LOL.
Also, as a note, the G.cala, G.gala, G.spatula, etc. are not valid subspecies. There is only the G.rosea. I read that some want to make the 'red phase' rosea a separate subspecies (based on more than color, of course), but its not happening yet...
perhaps Martin could fill us in on the status of the 'red' roseas?:D

Heh Goon, Dita was the name of her new bug, and she was at some crazy camp for the past month or so.
