Yes...I have both the gold dust and palmas palmas. A little easier to tell with the banding. Head shape/color and tail color as well if not stressed.

Like Dmd and polyaddict have mentioned.

Borrowing Dr.B Dr.B pic of his Buettikoferi. This one does have some dark banding in comparison to most.

In comparison to my old palmas palmas



While my old gold dust looked similar to Polyaddict86 Polyaddict86

Yep, Ive kept a few uppers before the big lower jaw switch. Ive had a sen and an albino sen, a delhezi, two different Buettikoferi, a palmas palmas, a teugelsi, a weeksii. Rehomed all except the weeksii... through it all I never have had (or wanted) an ornate... weird huh?
Lolz, why not an ornate?
