We will be getting these two on Monday at Wetspotcx. This photo was taken by the collectors in Columbia. Any ideas?

They certainly look like lenticulata ~ a very colorful variant!! Ask Steve if he can verify collection location, it would help with future species selection... Those are really nice Pikes!!!!!!!

No dice there-Columbia is the only location we could get out of them. I dont remember seeing lents with red on them like that.

Does 'Jacunda' ring a bell? a local term for very colorful lents. I think the "Pike Photo Shoot" has some pics....

i wanna say lenticulatas also. definitely a cool color variant if they are.
