Hi, images 1, 2 and 4 are all P. regina, but image 3 is a Swamp Tigertail, which you'll need to remove to a separate sighting.

Thanks Harvey! All done. Great that we have both and now that you point it out, I can see the difference. From memory they were in two different pools near to one another along the creek. Sandra

Hi Sandra, they are superficially fairly similar; that's where habitat and behaviour really kick in. It looks like you've deleted photo 4 though, and retained the Swamp Tigertail.

I deleted photo 3 (the photo in the new entry) on my end. I can only see 1, 2 and 4 here... maybe CNM just needs time to propagate through?

Ok - that's weird. If I check on my phone it still shows the Swamp Tigertail as the third photo, but if I go through the web page it shows the three regina photos. Given the latter, assume all is well!

And to confirm the photos are correct through my computer browser but not updated correctly on my phone browser just like Harvey.
