Comments by the Expert Panel on this record:

Comment number:   1
By:   Darren Pietersen
Comment:   Colouration strongly suggests A. maculicollis, but I have seen A. walbergii with similar colouration and I cannot see either a pale ventrolateral stripe or extensive spotting on the neck, so cannot call it either way.
