Picked up a couple of these today. Dinyar, is this the same species you got from Toyin?

Apart from the color being much darker on ours, it looks the same in terms of profile and humeral process shape.

Are yours also from Toyin?

Yeah. Picked up a couple along with some Bathyaethiops breuseghemi.

Hi,

Just got back after a month away. My first impression is that, no, this does not look like the same species as ours. I think Jools put some of our pix up as E. guentheri, so you can compare them yourself.

They don't appear to be the same. Did yours show any pale color on the body (mine has a couple of smallish patches on the sides)?

No, ours are jet black.

Seem pretty tough, not like Chilos.
