LOL Nope. It kind of died a slow, languishing death.
One of the last things said was that both are probably geographical variants of lenticulata. I'm not buying it. Personally I think that the 'Red Back Strigata' is an undescribed species from Venezuela and Columbia. It's just too different from lenticulata to be a geographical variant. Oddly, I haven't posed the question to Vinny yet. Maybe I'll do so right now.
Aye, Vinny will give you a great debate!! LOL! He should be joining relatively soon hopefully. Fingers crossed!! BTW...thats a hott pair indeeders!! not a bad price either!! Good eyers dude!!
