Do O.s have color variants?

[Kara]

Do they have different pattern or color variations or are they all pretty much the same?

[Dan87]

From what I've seen most of them are roughly the same. Yet again im no expert on these things I have still to acquire my own.

[Gonodactylus]

The basic color pattern is quite fixed although the spot pattern on the thorax varies from individual to individual. The oolors of the antennal scales, uropods, raptorial appendages, etc, do not. The background boty color is somewhat variable from individual to individual and also varies with age and sex. Juveniles are somewhat more yellow. Females turn more olive to brownish green and males more bright green. However, as I have said before, you can be fooled. Diet, light, habitat and probably genetics can all effect color.
