I remember when these hit the US shores back in 2001, and the stir they caused. I can also remember those that despite the obvious differences, couldn’t tell E campestratus from (now) G pulchripes. Art from Chicago, listening? The E campestratus has greatly enlarged hind legs, zebra striping on all legs, and a beige ceph. They’re incredibly docile, easy to keep 72-82 with humidity around 65%, and a stern warning not to over feed!
