Comments by the Expert Panel on this record:

Comment number:   1
By:   Darren Pietersen
Comment:   The dark-edged, pale flank spots are atypical of L. chobiensis (from what I can remember), but are typical of L. angolensis. Note: The distrbution map for L. angolensis in Branch (1998) is incorrect - they occur throughout the Zambezi valley (also mentioned in text).
