Hey,

I probably am not much help, since I think species are at best like porn (you dont know it until you see it) or at worst like the ROUSs (I dont believe they exist)

At the moment the "Egyptian" and "Kenyan" sands are subspecies. But, there is no good genetic data to say how different they are. So it really is a judgement call. I for one, dont think they are different subspecies since there can be and likely is gene flow in the wild.
