. The dorsal surface of the disc of all four immature specimens (SL-1, SL- 12, SL-34, and SL-61) had regular brown spots on a yellow or pale brown background. However, somewhat marked color pattern differences were seen among the four adult specimens. In two cases (SL-8 and SL-10), the dorsal surface of the disc is yellow to gray and bears numerous small spots that are essentially ocelli. In two other cases (SL-14 and SL-42), the dorsal surface of the disc is yellow and bears numerous, small, brown, irregular, elongate spots. However, the eight specimens differed from one another by only 04 bp and are thus likely conspecific.
