An uncommon colour form of E. trigonopodus from Kenya. This is an adult female measuring about 13cm BL. I received a 1.1 pair last year, and was told the sexes were not aggressive to each other; I put them together one night and in the morning all was left of the male was a half-eaten corpse. :wall:

These pics were taken in a container I use for that purpose, not in her enclosure, so don't worry about the dry substrate.

Ethmostigmus realy has some nice species, been waiting for pics of this one! The caramel colors are cool.

How is your E. rubripes spinosus doing? The best looking sp I have seen yet :p

Wow sweet looking pede.

I do keep my E. Trigonopodus dry for the most part though, with a large water bowl.
