Talk:tarantula

If the use for the actual, original tarantula is dated in English, what would be an up-to-date term? I'm sure it isn't called Lycosa tarantula by ordinary pepole. Or maybe "tarantula" is only dated in scientific use? 178.4.151.167 11:08, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia's article is called tarantula and says nothing about datedness in the first para. Equinox ◑ 11:21, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Okay. So should the tag be removed from the sense then? 178.4.151.167 21:44, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
