I was thinking petricola as well,and it sure is fat.There also seems to be a good bit of hybridization going on with synos ithese days.

sorry, I was not clear in my meaning.
Yes, they both have smaller head spots than body spots, however Petricola has more and smaller spots.
Should also find that Lucipinnis has fewer and larger body spots too.
Gotcha....the petricola also appears to have a lighter body color than the lucipinis.
