OK, so how can you tell the differences between the apurensis, fowleri, and nigricauda?

very much debate on that question as its very hard. with its current patterning I would have to say nigricauda,but it could just be juvi coloration as he looks small...truthfully IMO I feel it could be either of the three...time and size will tell.
 
;)top one nigricauda, bottom one fowleri.

def. a face only a mother could love:ROFL: :ROFL: :ROFL:
 
i agree with wayne a few apurensis and nigricauda came into the uk over the last year and someone i know bought 3 and 2 turned out to be apurensis (i got 1 of them) and 1 nigricauda which had erxactly the same look/markings etc.
these are the smaller of this type of cat.
very nice too
