Neoholothele incei is a species of tarantula from Trinidad and Venezuela, commonly called the Trinidad olive tarantula. When mature, the species has a leg-span exceeding 5–. As often the case with tarantulas, the females live longer than males, with the former living up to 7 years compared to the 2 years that males can expect to reach. N. incei is a bird spider and is fossorial. It is commonly kept as a pet as it is easy to breed.[1] Rarely for tarantulas, N. incei is known to live communally and cannibalism is rare except for times of extreme hunger.[2] Like most New World species, the venom of N. incei is considered to be mild and comparable to a bee sting, however no research has confirmed this.[3]
This species has a golden carapace and its abdomen is striped.
