Cyriopagopus albostriatus, commonly known as zebra leg tarantula is a species of spider in the family Theraphosidae, found in Myanmar, Thailand, and Cambodia.
It is a moderately large fossorial species, which spends most of its time in a burrow.
These patterns on a black background have earned it the common name Thai zebra tarantula.
It is an Old World tarantula, so has no urticating hairs; its only defenses are biting and fleeing.
This tarantula is known to have more potent venom than many tarantula species[citation needed], but Cyriopagopus albostriatus venom was shown in a study to have the ability to regulate activity in voltage-gated sodium channels, which are promising therapeutic targets for people with chronic pain.
