[QUOTE="minard734, post: 224911, member: 5888"] I know you want to think it. I know it REALLY looks like one. I even asked Yen... he thinks it is floridensis, last time I checked. I've seen many carolina and they do NOT get this big... EVER! Not since I was 6, have I seen them this big... and regular carolina and floridensis are both down there... but these in betweeners are present... Also... I'll show you another picture... I am shocked that it's so big. I told my cousin it was carolina 'till I saw it in person... but look at the thorax and head: See the "floridensis" and true floridensis together on the upper left hand corner? And see the carolinas to the right? It's weird. Is a hybrid possible? It's not been proven wrong yet. Just see how it is the same length as the floridensis to the left of it... and that floridensis is 69mm. What is wrong with it? Also see the 2 nice sized male floridensis in there. The carolinas were collected by me. They are all 48-60mm. [IMG]https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/302716_414884055250304_449972480_n.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
