Lyrognathus robustus

Lyrognathus robustus is a tarantula species found in Indonesia, particularly on the island of Sumatra. It is one of five species currently recognized in the genus Lyrognathus. Key facts about L. robustus: Adult females have a body length of around 6-7 cm, with males being slightly smaller. The coloration is typically a uniform dark brown to black, with no distinct patterns or markings. L. robustus is a terrestrial species that inhabits tropical forests, often hiding under debris or in burrows. This species is known for its relatively large size and its robust build. The natural history and behavior of this species in the wild are poorly studied, and more research is needed to understand its ecology and conservation status. The current conservation status of L. robustus is unknown, and further research is required to assess any potential threats to its populations in the wild. As with many tarantula species in Indonesia, habitat loss and degradation due to deforestation and land-use changes may pose risks to wild populations.
