[greeny1]

no james it is diphoriphora spp.

 

[greeny1]

not magna, thats also in QLD

 

[GeckoJosh]

yeah i know im out of ones restricted to WA & NT

 

[GeckoJosh]

D. albilabris and bennettii are the only ones i can find

 

[jamesf55]

according to my source I am using which makes this game very easy, the only 2 species found in WA and NT are Diporiphora bennettii and Diporiphora albilabris though I think it is very outdated, need to get one of my field guides. obviously its not either as they were already guessed and where wrong.

edit: geckoman I see your also using what I am lol, makes it easy hey.

 

[GeckoJosh]

No way im just using my mad herping skills James

 

[greeny1]

lol, im using steve wilson and gerry swans guide. maybe the species i found isnt in your books

 

[greeny1]

if i used my herping skills you would have guessed right straight away.

 

[GeckoJosh]

is it D.arnhemica?

 

[jamesf55]

lol I am not using a book, I am using an outdated (I think) but easy site that has a list of the species, then states there found in lol. I couldnt be bothered getting out a book I am to lazy lol, I know nothing of animals found ouside of the eastern states.
