'''''Lasiodora''''' is a genus of [[tarantula]]s belonging to the family [[Theraphosidae]].<ref> Norman I.

'''''Lasiodora''''' is a [[genus]] of [[Theraphosidae|tarantulas]] that was first described by [[Ludwig Carl Christian Koch]] in 1850.<ref name=Koch1850>{{cite book| last=Koch| first=C. L.| year=1850| title=Übersicht des Arachnidensystems| doi=10.5962/bhl.title.39561| pages=1–77| url=https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/bibliography/39561| author-link=Ludwig Carl Christian Koch}}</ref> They are often very large; body lengths of up to {{convert|25|cm}}, including the legs, are not unusual.
This genus includes 38 species, which are mainly found in Brazil. These spiders are often very large (a length of 25 cm, including legs, is not unusual).

== Diagnosis ==
This genus can be distinguished from other [[Tarantula|tarantulas]] by the presence of hairs used for [[stridulation]] on the upper area of the coxae of leg 1 and 2. Males also own a triangular keel below the apex of the [[palpal bulb]], females also have a [[Sclerotin|sclerotized]] (hardened by [[sclerotin]]) area between the two sections of the [[Spermatheca|spermathecae]].<ref>{{Cite web |last1=Campolina |first1=Carolina |last2=Chatzaki |first2=Maria |last3=Bruna |first3=Bárbara |last4=Carmo |first4=Anderson |last5=de Faria |first5=Flávia |last6=Kalapothakisa |first6=Evanguedes |date=2015 |title=The Venom from Lasiodora sp.: A Mygalomorph Brazilian Spider |url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/308901629 |access-date=July 19, 2022 |website=ResearchGate}}</ref>

Lasiodora is a genus of tarantulas that was first described by Ludwig Carl Christian Koch in 1850.[2] They are often very large; body lengths of up to 25 centimetres (9.8 in), including the legs, are not unusual.

Diagnosis

[edit]

This genus can be distinguished from other tarantulas by the presence of hairs used for stridulation on the upper area of the coxae of leg 1 and 2. Males also own a triangular keel below the apex of the palpal bulb, females also have a sclerotized (hardened by sclerotin) area between the two sections of the spermathecae.[3]

Species

[edit]

As of December 2023 it contains seven species, found in Brazil:[1]
