>>Hi Froggie,
>>
>>oh, sorry, I obviously mixed up some things. So the animals in the last post were the supposed lepidogaster, not armata.
>>Donīt know why, but I misunderstood this.
>>
>>Anyhow, I still tend to say that the ID as lepidogaster true-at least for the female, the male looks a bit unusual to me.
>>
>>Your armatas are really nice specimens and they definitely belong to this species.
>>The dark animal Iīd say is 100% female.
>>The other specimen displays a colour and pattern which would be quite typical for males.
>>But I am afraid, I am as lost as you are: I think, the hemipenis bulges should be more visible.
>>Anyhow, from my Gonocephalus I know that there can be sigificant variation in the size of hemipenis bulges.
>>I had one male chamaleontinus, which could easily be mistaken for a female when looking at its tail base but definitely was male and also showed male colouration.
>>So again, I think, I canīt help you much, but I think there is still hope.
>>The overall appearance of the animal is male ...but fat belly and thin tail base still leave the question open. Not easy!
>>
>>best regards
>>
