Hi all
Just downstairs taking photos of my sandsifters and thought I would share some pics and ask if anyone can Identify the origin of my X. Spilopterus. My thoughts are maybe mabilibili? When I purchased they were just X. Spilopterus.

Hello Mark,
your X. spiloptera are certainly from along the Mahale coastline, and possibly from Mabilibili, as I think most of yellow X. spiloptera are collected there.
