| My money's on Gertschi. The biggest difference between C. sculpticauda* "Gertschi" and C. vittatus has something to do with the coloration surrounding the eyes. So, look closely at the patterning of the carapace and you should be able to tell. *Portmanteau of exilicauda and sculpturatus because taxonomy revisions make me go | |

| {this is my reply from Venomlist} I'm 99.999% certain it's the C. exilsculp gertchi vitti has the triangle that looks like a burglar mask | |

| thats lookin pretty gertchi. im very surprised you found it in phoenix. if you want to find more, i can take you to some great spots and then we can do a good side by side analysis. it is possible that it is an abbarent pattern of the nominate form. i have seen individuals within a nominate population with slight markings like that, but never that bold. nice looking animal. | |
