Well I've picked up a nice example of a colour form know as "Olive" commonly sold around the Brisbane area and possibly the rest of Australia. This individual is not as dark as some of the others I've seen but possesses all of the usual characteristics. Olive colouration, spotting and the presence of iridophores (most obvious around the eyes and on the tail). The eyes are red so maybe some sort of albino?
I was wondering if this would be classed as a "Copper" in Europe and if not does anybody know what to class it as? I've seen a photo of a Copper and it appeared to possess iridophores, at least around the eyes, but I was wondering if they appeared so prominently on the tail as shown on the individual below.
I have another individual which I've been informed is a copper but it does not appear to possess iridophores so I'm a little confused?
Regards Neil Cornish
