Ybyrapora sp White is a trade labelled tarantula whose exact species identity has not been reliably established. The genus Ybyrapora includes small to medium sized arboreal tarantulas native to Brazil. Confirm the precise identity with the supplier before treating species specific measurements or origin details as definitive.
Behavior and Temperament: Generally fast-moving and skittish, often preferring to retreat or flee when disturbed. It may jump when startled and should not be handled. Members of this genus may possess urticating hairs.
Habitat and Environment Needs: Provide a tall, secure enclosure with excellent cross ventilation, vertical cork bark, branches and foliage for climbing and webbing. Keep a shallow water dish available. Maintain a mostly dry surface with suitable moisture in the lower substrate, avoiding stagnant, overly damp conditions.
Feeding: Feed appropriately sized live insects, including crickets and roaches. Spiderlings require smaller prey and more frequent feeding than adults. Remove uneaten prey, particularly before moulting.
Additional Information: “White” appears to be an informal trade designation rather than a recognised scientific species name. The exact adult size, natural range and growth rate cannot be confirmed without a more precise identification. This tarantula is best suited to keepers comfortable with fast arboreal species.
