Dr. Roy, are my ID's correct?...I feel like I'm testing in class.

The female is definitely G. chiragra. The green animal is either G. graphurus or G. glabrous, but the only way to tell for sure is to look at the sixth abdomenal tergite for the carinule. G. graphurus also have scuptured groves on the side of the abdomenal segments, but these are a bit hard to see. Based just on point of origin and availability, I would guess G. glabrous, but you never know.

I thought either G. graphurus or G. glabrous on Typhon, as I mentioned in my email while you were away in Moorea. I'll try to get a clear shot of his/her posterior to get a more full positive ID.


Thanks again,

-Ron
