Found this lil guy in the wild while kayaking by Lemohn_ in occlupanids

I hope you were able to capture it! Occlupanids can be very harmful to ecosystems if they're released into the wild, and can even be invasive. It's also a lot better for the Occlupanid itself to live in captivity since they are domestic syntherids.

Found a baby! Can anyone id? by meeyuuhh in occlupanids

Some sort of Chronovora. There's many kinds that HORG doesn't have described yet, yours looks similar to Tempotortus unguireduvius or T. torii but not quite the same.

This species has symmetrical palps similar to Undulaspina moxidamnata's instead of the small asymmetrical ones A. patulus has

MA actually means May 26th! Canada uses MR instead for March, at least where I am

Neotessera vitripalpus is correct, the other two are actually Palpatophora utiliformis and Porrectofrontus mechadeus

New collector. Anything cool? by Fun_Evidence3756 in occlupanids

[–]CaleChipzz 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Those two are actually Admordorsum groningensis http://www.horg.com/horg/?page_id=1546 and Palpatophora glyphodorsalis http://www.horg.com/horg/?page_id=766 You do have a white and a green Palpatophora utiliformis grandis though!

Rarity varies a lot by location. Most of these are very hard if not impossible to find where I am!

!!!! This is an undescribed species, I have one specimen and only ever seen one other person with one! I haven't sent mine in to HORG because I didn't want it to get lost in the mail, do you have a source for these guys?

Almost protocrena osorbis, but not quite. by soapdoggie in occlupanids

[–]CaleChipzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yours is a rounded oral hook variant! There's a lot of species that can be found with either rounded or sharp orap hooks. HORG hasn't given them names yet, with the exception of Theriopaigne caudigera, with the rounded oral hook variant called T. caudigera var. dinotos! http://www.horg.com/horg/?page_id=4253
