Name changes in WSC
[edit]The recent name changes in the World Spider Catalog, following on from the monograph by Fukishima and Bertani – “Taxonomic revision and cladistic analysis of Avicularia Lamarck, 1818 (Araneae, Theraphosidae, Aviculariinae) with description of three new aviculariine genera”, in ZooKeys, volume 659, 2017, DOI:, pages 1–185, Suppl. 1-5 – are difficult to deal with here, since many images are under names regarded as doubtful (nomen dubium). Those I have looked at seem largely to be photos of pets, so the names under which they were sold were highly suspect in the first place. Even those images under names accepted by the World Spider Catalog must be regarded as uncertainly identified. Only images from scientific sources are likely to be accurate.
