Hi, Chris. I'll try to answer it. I dont know about the new locale to be imported thing, but in here, Indonesia, there are a lot Carinata-carinata from Ambon island. From what I know, it has a cream color.

About the reddish color, Jayapura carinata-carinata sometimes has reddish color too. And about the size, all carinata-carinata have the same size I think (unless for the male, it's smaller than the female). Which is larger than carinata-carinata is candoia paulsoni tasmai. Sometimes people oftenly mistaken because of the same look when the paulsoni still small. But when paulsoni gets bigger, people will see the difference on the head shape. Besides, paulsoni has different colors on the under neath it's body than carinata-carinata.

But back to the basic, since there's only a little information available about candoia family, I think sometimes people make mistake about the locality that seen from the color, pattern thing. So forgive me if I'm wrong

Sorry for my poor english...
