Common genera: Monocentropus, Hysterocrates, Pelinobus
Enclosure size for adults: These species have a range of sizes, from Monocentropus balfouri which reach around 5” (12cm) to Hysterocrates gigas which can reach 8” (20cm). This means enclosure sizes can vary as well. In general, enclosures should be around 2.5-3x legspan in all directions.
Enclosure setup (décor, substrate, etc.): These species are all fossorial or opportunistic burrowers, meaning they need deep substrate that can hold burrows well. Substrate should be minimum around 2x legspan deep. They should also be provided with hides and décor like bark, plants, etc.
Humidity/moisture: Most of these species prefer it drier, while some prefer it more moist. H. gigas specifically prefers a moister substrate. The other species should have a dry substrate, with a moist corner and a water dish.
