Hi Prizz!

I do have a female, however it is his sister and she just isnt big enough to breed yet :( He matured out a lot smaller than I thought he would!! around 6-7" I'd say. As for the blue sheen, I didnt notice it on my male until he matured!! I just havent kept enough specimens of this species to be able to say if they are sexually dimorphic in that respect.
Good luck with your breeding :D

Hi Andrew!

Thx for replying... 7" would be then about 17-18 cm... that's also smaller then I've thought. Then my male has maybe 1-2 moults left to be an adult, handsome guy. :D He has now a legspann of ~14 cm.

Yea they does. I have both immanis and intermedia and when disturbed they raise the abdomen in the air. Like many Phampoboteus sp. Yous are not crazy, lol.! Cheers.!!!///Johan

Could somebody show me a picture about an adult male Xenesthis
intermedia? What's the difference between an adult male X. immanis
and an adult male X. intermedia? Is there any difference at all
between these two species??
