Avicularia metallica was created in 1875.

Tarantulas come in almost every conceivable color, from dull brown or black to red, yellow, metallic green or bright blue. It all depends on the species of tarantula. Some of the most visually stunning tarantulas are the Poecilotheria genus (and more specifically, the Poecilotheria metallica) and the Avicularia genus (the Avicularia versicolor has amazing colors!).

Tarantulas come in a variety of colors - from plain black all over, to bright blue - with nearly every other color represented somewhere. It all just depends on the species of tarantula. Some of the most striking and most beautiful tarantulas are the Poecilotheria and Avicularia species.
