epiplatys sp. nimba



Hi, 
Can i get some ID help from the Epiplatys gang on the list?
There's a Guinea shipment in town, with nice yellow finned normani
lampeyes, dageti that are ringers for the Monrovia photos, and...
a)	a large (8-9 cm) Epiplatys, very much like a fasciolatus type, that
comes from the Mount Nimba region in Guinea. It was exported as
Epiplatys "nimbaensis". Can anyone tell me what could come from that
region and what I would look at to identify it? I'm going to the
importer's tomorrow to get some.
b)	Lovely little barmoensis, according to the exporter. How does one
differentiate barmoensis from bifasciatus?
Thanks,
