Lasiocyano

Species of spider

Lasiocyano is a genus of tarantulas. As of June 2023, it was a monotypic genus with the sole species Lasiocyano sazimai, synonym Pterinopelma sazimai, known as the Brazilian blue, iridescent blue or Sazima's tarantula. The species was first described by Rogério Bertani, Roberto Hiroaki Nagahama and Caroline Sayuri Fukushima in 2011. In 2012, it became the first Brazilian species to appear on the International Institute for Species Exploration's top 10 new species list. The species name honors Ivan Sazima, a Brazilian zoologist who was the first to collect exemplars of the species. It is now considered an endangered species owing to smuggling and a shrinking habitat.
