Which Central American nations are mentioned as part of the territorial extension for *A. seemanni* besides the epicenter country?

Answer

Guatemala and Nicaragua northward, and Panama southward

The distribution of *Aphonopelma seemanni* is not strictly limited to Costa Rica; its territory extends across a defined band of Central America. Specifically, the established range moves northward into Guatemala and Nicaragua. Conversely, the territory extends southward across the border into Panama. This documented spread across multiple nations indicates a tolerance for slightly varying microclimates, provided the fundamental environmental requirements of dry forest or scrubland are met across this geographic span.
