Color variation of Navanax aenigmaticus

March 9, 2002
From: Alicia Hermosillo


I took these pictures yesterday of this Navanax aenigmaticus. As you can see, the pink-red color is very different from the usual brown or clear pink seen in most pictures. I did also see the yellow ink as I moved it to take the picture. This particular individual I put back after the photo.

Locality data: Los Arcos, Bahia de Banderas, State of Jalisco and Nayarit, Mexico, February 2002.

Dear Alicia,
Thanks for this photo. It is certainly an interesting colour variety.
