Hi Palespider, are you sure on the name labeling because your P.regalis looks like a P.rufiliata instead of the regalis. Your T.blondi is really nice looking and I love the macro eyes shots.

Thanks. I have 4 P. regalis's and they all appear to be so.
I did notice that in the close ups of the larger females they show a gorgeous purplish highlight similar to a rufilata.

If I may break in on this thread: I think petitegreeneyes meant that the ornata on your page looks like a rufilata, and I kind of agree with that, it has the colourings of a rufilata, but then again, I'm no expert...
Very nice pictures on your page, nice close-ups!
greetz,

Sorry Jim, but the one pic I looked at last night resembled the rufiliata but I just went back and looked at a different one and it is the regalis. My apologies.

No biggie I was kind of excited about it considering I have 4 P. regalis.

And for the P. ornata looking like a P. rufilata I checked various pics and I'm pretty certain it's an P. ornata as it still has it's sub colors. And I have a lot of confidence in John Hoke who sold it to me.
