Hi everyone,
I finally took the time to go to a good spot for concolor aspis. Because of some bad luck (closed roads) I had to drive far more than expected, finally I drove something like 8 hours for two hours on field...
BUT it was worth it ! I found my first concolor, a young one, with the end of the tail cut, but so beautiful
I also found a dark dusty adult.

Now the only thing I want is to go back there and find more !

Congratulations!
I think the hours in the car were more than profitable!

Beautiful !

Congrats Yannick, very cool!

yes, the bronze colored is a beauty.

Does "a good spot for concolor aspis" mean that the concolor ones are there
more frequent than elsewhere? Someone's observation you had known of?

Yes, the concolor are very frequent there, according to a study, in this area about 50% of the aspis are. For now I verified this ratio

we just found 7 concolor out of 22
