Yeah, they are a very light color compared to other nymphs. They're more yellow than green which you can see in the photos because the lighting was better. They also hatched, pulled out of the egg case and ran up to dry faster than any species I've documented so far. It was hard to keep up with them! They run very fast.

Disappointing isn't it? Sometimes I feel if I don't keep a culture going they will be gone.

Aren't they the same as Patellifera?

I have no idea. Don't know much about the species. Was given a few ooths.

Looks like you are correct. The names are synonyms.

Thanks for the heads up!

I love them! They are great little heirodulas. Patty was a patellifera. She was one of the smartest I've had. I hope you sell them here soon.

The xisnaensis I bought recently remind me of Patty, the adults will be about her size.
