Need help with ID on these.

My friend has these purple hornets in his tank. They're definitely purple, and not blue hornets (no baby blue center). However, they do have an all yellow skirt from what I can tell (not the alternating color skirt). Have these just morphed, and are they as desirable as the other purple hornets? They're very pretty zoas, and my friend wants to trade with me for some others I have, but I just want to make sure I know what I'm getting- as well as let him know that these are the real mccoy..

Cheers

Hey Laura- thanks for replying, but LA Lakers have a noticeably wider ring than purple hornets do..

I'm almost certain that they're a morph/variation of purple hornets (only difference is all yellow skirt), but does that make them any less desirable in the trade, or sale of them?

Cheers
