i dunno about the legality of the fly rivers in the united states. to the best of my knowledge, new guinea has not issued any export permits for these guys and all the ones floating around in the u.s. came from indonesia. fly rivers of course, are not from indonesia. just because they're not on cites (or not cites I), does not mean that they can be legally owned in the u.s. for instance, australian herps have always been difficult to obtain b/c australia does not allow the legal exportation of their animals. most of their herps that are here in the u.s., slip through new guinea. in my humble opinion, all this stuff is legal b.s. but the dec has used it many a times, to fine and indict importers/hobbyist.
