Kurt,

Following are the N. korthausae populations we collected in 2002 with the
color forms indicated:

N. korthausae Mafia Island TAN 02-1 (yellow form)
N. korthausae Mafia Island TAN 02-2 (yellow and red forms)
N. korthausae Mafia Island TAN 02-3 (yellow and red forms)
N. korthausae Mafia Island TAN 02-5 (yellow and red and bi-color forms
(anterior part of body red, posterior part yellow))
N. korthausae Mbezi River TAN 02-6 (yellow form)(mainland locality)
N. korthausae Sotele TAN 02-7 (yellow form, some with very broad bands in
caudal)(mainland locality)
N. korthausae Rungungu TAN 02-11 (yellow form)(mainland locality)
N. korthausae Mbezi River TAN 02-32 (yellow form, different locality to TAN
02-6)(mainland locality)

We also found another korthausae-like Notho that we initially called N.
korthausae but now, after observing it in my tanks for a few months, I don't
think it is. I'll let you know about this one in due course, when I figure
out what it represents.
