Hi Paris,
they´re really nice

How are they colored as adults?

 

[paris]

ingo,
here is the link to the CC pics of them-the one at the top is an adult-just black with white spots, juvies are very coppery. the one from this picture above is the one that is seen on my finger in the picture taken by jennifer macke. the picture just to the right of that of the 2 on the log shows the comparison shot of the same juvie with an adult.

Aaah... - thx, Paris!

I already thought about something like an invisible link...

...I see... - interesting colours...
I like them even more as juveniles

call it the 'missing link'

they are very metallic copper as juvies-adult colouration is regionally and individually variable i hear-if you see the new posted pic of the female with eggs she has mostly no white spots at all.
