The images on this website are merely a small cross-section of the species and images found in Rick West's photo collection. Viewers are welcome to use this website as an identification tool, however, viewers must realize that although many tarantulas are colour/pattern specific, identifications can never be positively made from images alone. Additionally, although Rick West keeps up with taxonomic changes scientific names change constantly and may not always be immediately reflected on this website.
