There is no nevedensis in these they are pure lepidus lepidus. The nevadensis gets bigger but they do not have the color of lepidus from what Bert Langerwerf told me. Also got a pair of 2 year old lepidus from him and 5 baby strigata. I can keep them outdoors for a lot of the year here in Michigan USA and maybe the strigata can stay out all year with the properly designed terraria as this line is from Armenia which is colder in the winter but warmer in the summer.
