Question

ID confirmation pls :)


length = 3.5" - 4"
he was lime-green under the LFS lights
I have seen his raptorial appendages and he has a small black/navy spot on each - the meral could be white
a little long for N.bredini, so I thought N. wennerae
?

FWIW, if anyone is interested, I rec'd the ID of (female) Gonodactylus chiragra from Dr. Caldwell

meral spot is white, ovoid, with a small dark dot near the carpal joint

no mate for her - I may be wrong, but I don't think this is a monogamous species - she is too feisty to put anyone else in with her w/o eggcrate
