Yup, these are all M. polli. I could never find any differences between the spotted and unspotted forms (except for the color pattern).

I have been thinking the spotted ones may be juveniles...are your spotted ones smaller than the others.

These are highly variable in pattern.

I have the the group for almost a year now... The most spotted one has never changed in pattern so i don't think it has something to do with juviles..
