Erythrinus sp. peru vs Erythrinus "normal"

Hi everybody,

since we recently had an argument in a German board, but don't have enough user that actually own one of the 2 wolfs mentioned in the title, I decided to ask you here:

We are aware of the colour differences, but how exactly do size and mass differ? We were discussing that sp. peru seem to be not only longer (around 30-40cm max), but also more massive and maybe more active.

Who can agree or tell me anything about the differences mentioned from experience?

cheers

excuse me? i have no idea what you mean..

i am talking about the two different kinds in general. don't you differentiate between them?

here a gallery of a german vendor:

i've seen both here in germany in stores...

strange...you are closer to SA

not enough replies anyway to draw any conclusions

there are two different erythrinus "species" (maybe not species but local forms) one called erythrinus erythrinus, the other one sp. peru. The latter is more colourful (red/orange) at least the males.
