This one ...
is a little confusing. I wonder if it may be a young male T. aspersa and the palps haven't begun to swell yet? Otherwise the yellow patches on the face make it look similar to T. grandis which by range it shouldn't be or maybe young females can look like this and I'm just not used to seeing it. Didn't happen to get a ventral did you?

This one is similar, but the rest (excluding males) have darker faces.
