      I can't say which one exactly, but it looks to me like some sort of Andromischus.

        Sal,
        Yup, that is an Adromichus.
        I am away at the moment, but i have a fantastic book on Adro at home. I will narrow the species down for you when i get back.

        Sal,
        I dont think it is.
        Google Derek Tribble Adromischus (i cant post a link from my ipad) and have a look at his Adro website. Very informative.
