ok need id help here, I got these specially imported as Veijita form II from Germany but recently i have been told they could be Macmasteri as the 2 species are often confused
can anyone help???
sorry about the quality but they just wouldnt stop moving
Poor photos but adequate for ID. These are A. macmasteri Rotrücken/Red-shouldered Macs. This is the strain most commonly sold as "A. viejita Color Form II". The original "A. viejita Color Form II", introduced in the 1st edition of Linke & Stack's book (only in German), is actually a lacustrine color morph of A. sp. Schwarzkehl/Black-throat, a.k.a. A. sp. Rotflecken/Red-flecked.
