Re: Fp gardneri Akampa Dark Morph?
Hi guys, I hate to disagree here but, you're both wrong. It is actually Akankpa, Nigeria. And IMHO much easier to pronounce than Akamkpa :) I have put a map on my site to show you. There is no link from my killi page yet, but the direct url is http://www.petsforum.com/tfsri/nigeria.jpg Also, as further proof, check out the Nigerian House of Reps page at
http://www.lagos-online.com/representatives.htm scroll down to rep#78. He is the Akankpa rep. HTH. later, Ron
