Euathlus is a genus of South American tarantulas that was first described by Anton Ausserer in 1875.[3] These spiders are medium sized and are usually found in high elevations in the Andes.[4] It is a senior synonym of Paraphysa,[2] and was formerly considered a senior synonym of Brachypelma,[5] but this was later rejected.[6]
