Orphnaecus philippinus, known as the Philippine Tangerine, Philippine Orange, or Neon Orange Tarantula is a species of tarantula.

It was described in 1999, by Gunter Schmidt, as Selenobrachys philippinus, but in 2012, Rick West, Steven Nunn and Henry Hogg made the genus Selenobrachys a junior synonym of Orphnaecus.

[1]It has an orange in colour throughout the entire body.

The retrolateral face of the chelicerae is setae-less and the stridulatory setae on the maxillae are butter knife-shaped.

They would rather flee than fight, and their usual hunting strategy is just to wait.
