regenerated tip. This is the smallest specimen, but is
probably past the stage when the real pink
juvinal tail color of rubricaudatus is evident.
3646 has the same orange but lighter. 3645
has light orange on regenerated part only; the
rest of the tail has no pink or orange. 3650 has
the same situation, but tail generally lighter and
orange bright. 3648 has orange labials (the
only one with orange labials - none have pink). The
under side of the head back to the throat is light
on the
pink. The ventral surface of the tail is shell pink;
the pink covers the ventral 3 rows of scales, and
extends up into the brownish dorsal surface. Just
the small regenerated tip of 3651 is light pink
ventrally. Reg. tips of 3653 and 3654 are not
pink.
The regenerated tips of females, no 3639
and 3641 have a faint tinge of blue, those of 3643
and 3644 are white ventrally, as are 3653 & 3651/80.
