Locality Cal Kings - where local means either desert or coastal
Copper Cal King - aka coastal
Chocolate Cal King - aka melanistic

Locality depends on if the map you're looking at is 1:24000 or 1:100000. If you're looking on a globe, it gets tough to identify the boundaries, so precision would be understandably hazy...
I am still waiting for someone to pass of a b&w desert cali as anerythristic...

lol yeah...

Some people just don't know what's what, and they try to push it off as something which makes it seem like they know what they're talking about.
