not all that uncommon either. It seems every now and then one or two appear with this marked tapering at the cloaca.
As Rob has already mentioned, the jury is still out, regarding the cause of this anomaly.
I too have noticed that the two dwarf specimens I currently have, 0.1 D. m erebennus and a 1.0 D. couperi, harbor the same cloacal taper.

Best regards,

Jeff.
