ID of new pl*co L323 or L353

Post by batho »

Went to lfs today and they have a 3" black pl*co with very, very small spots widely spaced.

The label said very rare new species Fine White Spot Pl*co L323 or L353 (can't quiet remember which!).
Priced at UK£60.

Can't find in Cat-eLog.

Anyone help?

Janne,

Nice one. Definitely L323.

Is UK£60 a good price for a recently found example?
