Aphonopelma pallidum is a tarantula of the family Theraphosidae. Commonly called the rose-grey, or Mexican rose, it is not available in the pet-trade. During the late 1990s and early 2000s, and undescribed species of Brachypelma was often traded under the name pallidum, but was since formally described as Brachypelma verdezi by Schmidt 2003. The adult male has brown legs, and the carapace a dull rose grey, while the female is unknown.
