Hapalotremus is a genus of South American tarantulas in the Theraphosinae subfamily that was first described by Eugène Louis Simon in 1903.[2] They have red or white Type III urticating (relatively long, thin) hairs,[3] up to 1.2 millimetres (0.047 in), with a fine point and barbs along at least half of the lower part. The tibial apophysis is branched twice (in males only),[4] and there is a conspicuous subapical keel on the male's embolus.[3]
