Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I'm struggling with this ID: Aphrodite or Northwestern? In one photo the eyes look a bit amber and in the other they look a bit blue. This was a very large individual, and doesn't have particularly dark or thickened veins--makes me think Aphrodite--but the eyes are giving me trouble. I'm leaning toward Aphrodite, but not sure I can make the call on my own.

Coordinator notes: it is certainly dark ventrally for either ratonensis or aphrodite. the eyes look basically amber to me, so I'll go with aphrodite, too.
