Acanthoscurria belterrensis is a species of tarantula native to Brazil. They typically are a dark reddish-brown color and sometimes have a more orange toned abdomen.[2] This species is not recorded to have been kept as pets and does not have much information about it, partially due to its recent discovery in 2014.[3]
