Brachypelma boehmei (also known as the Mexican fireleg tarantula, or the Mexican rustleg tarantula) is a tarantula native to Mexico in Guerrero state. These long-lived tarantulas prefer burrowing and hiding in dry scrubland. As with all closely related tarantula species, they defend themselves with urticating hair when provoked.
