There are people working with "striped" kenyans (blotches don't touch) that do not have rufescens blood (to the best of our knowledge). Not quite sure how these stripes are inherited, but they tend to have a slightly different look, hard for me to describe it.

In my collection, the stripes tend to be fairly uniform in shape and do not show blotches along the edges (note the stillborn specimen in the center of this photo).



Maybe I am just seeing things, maybe it is an artifact of deluting the rufescens blood, maybe I'm just crazy... LOL.
