jan 1, 1869 - Tamerlan Thorall discovers the Tarantula

Description:

(Circa 1869)

(While people already knew about tarantulas, with tarantulas already receiving technical formal transcriptions under different classifications, Tamerlan Thorall was the first to devise the family name Theraphosoidae for the spiders)

"Tarantulas comprise a group of large and often hairy spiders of the family Theraphosidae. Currently, about 1,000 species have been identified."
-Stephany Numman
