I love my ansorgiis head shape, to me it resembles my koliba/kiloton more than most ansorgii.

Full body shot? That looks like koloton IMO...

I see lateral lines coming from the back of the head. They should stop and turn into patches on ansorgii.

Picture of mine for reference.

Its 100% ansorgii, trust me. The reason I posted this shot was to keep the focus of discussion on the shape of the head rather than pattern lol

He does have the checkered pattern of ansorgii however a bit mor spaced out.

I'll post a full body shot later.

I always thought of ansorgii to have a shorter head compared to other lower jaws.

The head shape is definitely a little different.

It has great coloring on the head at least regardless.
 
Just a few old photos of my Ansorgii as a reference.


 
That's it there Halo nice! Where else are ansorgii commonly collected?

Toyin had shipment of ansorgiis from koloton last year. Not sure if he still have some. Most ansorgii are usually being caught from tikinso mostly the more reddish brown as well as niger river the patternless ones with olive green base to grey base.
