Yeah, I've been meaning to post about the micropholis thing for a while; there was an interesting thread on the subject about a year ago, but it seems to have been deleted in the past few months for reasons unknown. Oh, well... it looks like Nathan Wells probably gave you the story on that, anyway. I picked up a copy of Kenneth Williams' book recently, and counting the bands and scales on my "mostly" micropholis and comparing them to his data on micropholis and micropholis x andesiana intergrades fully supports the story that these are the offspring of a pure Ecuadorian micro and a Colombian intergrade. Maybe a little scale counting could shed some light on Andy's quandary...
