Collection and characterization of semen from Chilean rose tarantulas (Grammostola rosea)

Abstract:

Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—The described technique allowed simple and re-peatable collection of semen from Chilean rose tarantulas. Semen from this species was characterized by numerous spherical capsules containing many nonmotile spermatozoa in an apparently quiescent state. Fluorescent staining to distinguish live from dead spermatozoa appeared to be a useful tool for semen evaluation in this species.
