Re: Parietalis that I have met


Male.


Female. Sadly, I don't have any proper pictures of her and the true colours don't come out in this picture. Has little dark pigmentation below the lateral stripe and the amount of red pigmentation decreases the further back you go, so the markings change from pale orange/red to pink to white. The markings are practically completely white past the first third of her length, but they are pretty clearly defined and the exact same shape and relative size as on the male above, forming bars along the entire length of the body. The word intergrade came to mind once, but she probably isn't one. Not especially pretty, I guess. Dull colours.
