There are absolutely NO genuine L.t.micropholis known to be in ANY U.S. or European private collections.......absolutely NONE! there used to be just a few very real-deal L.t.micropholis here in the country many years ago. However, those are no longer around and the last remaining specimens died years back. There was even a true anerythristic micropholis as well, but are all deceased now. There are only some micropholis x andesiana crosses in today's hobby, that's it. You can take this to the bank too. In other words, don't hold your breath for any real micropholis to pop up on the classifieds or on someone's show table. Same thing with L.t.smithi, L.t. dixoni, and 100% pure bloodline L.t.blanchardi. Myself and only a couple of others have the only available "blanchardi" bloodline in the entire U.S. or Europe. These have some polyzona influence from the original female that was imported from the Moscow Zoo. The male was a 100% pure patternless blanchardi found just outside of Quintana Roo, Mexico on a small chicken ranch on the Yucatan peninsula.
