Re: Red versus Blue
Is that one of those random mutation things or is that actually genetic? I wouldn't mind his babies.

Re: Red versus Blue
I always thought it strange that the pattern of the T. similis actually looks more like a sirtalis pattern, than that of the Florida blue, which is a sitalis sub-species. To me the pattern of the Florida blue looks a lot more like a checker pattern

I'm still a little confused and I guess I've never thought too much about morphs. Now I realize that I'm not clear exactly what a morph is. I thought that was just an appearance thing. If an entire population is the same kind of morph, wouldn't that make it a sub species? Apparently there are populations of both in the wild. So what defines one as a morph and the other as a subspecies?
