heres a perfect link with lots of species info...its in German, so you have to get it translated(which a few of the guys from the BTS did for me) locale info and descriptions....i know nesh and andrew will love this
you know... i have been thinking about maybe learning german for bug stuff
plus, theni would sort of speak three languages =P _________________

There may be people who like centipedes. I have seen people handling tarantulas and scorpions, but never a centipede handler. I would regard such a person with deep suspicion...Now what sort of man or woman or monster would stroke a centipede on its underbelly "And here is my big good centipede." If such a man exists, I say kill him without more ado. He is a traitor to the human race.
its a shame all the great info is usally found in another language...but the pics are awesome.. it includes maps and anatomy and biology.. i should be getting the poecilotheria and brachypelma in German sp' soon...and grammostola sp' which is in Russian.... _________________ "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

maybe Mikhail F. Bagturov would be willing ot help with the russian?
also... i don't know if it would help the humans or not... but google is not terrible at doing approximate translations. of course, it gets worse the more techincal things are... but it might be less daunting if there is a starting place, at least _________________

You can have it translate an entire web page just by entering the url. (Of course, they aren't always the *clearest* translations -- especially with technical jargon specific to a particular field -- but it's usually possible to get the gist of it).
