P 82
Codes
|
A
code also circulated as P 80 but this is considered to be a corruption
of P 82. No record can be found of this code. Also, in 2003 on the AKA newsgroup someone reported keeping a P 84. This is a corruption of P 82. |

History
|
The code 'P' is something of a mystery. I have been unable to find out what 'P' stands for or where they were collected. | ||||||

Notes
|
It's interesting that some of the photos above
show the red spot in the anal at the same point as Akkamkpa (see the
Akkamkpa page). Roger commented that this population seems to take longer to colour up. Also, males can be aggressive to each other & females. |
