Aaron,
There are some Golden Terribs listed on Seans website.
My question is are they actually from a different locale?
Maybe I am hijacking, if so sorry.

Ive seen bicolors up for sale as goldens in the past. Are the yellow and orange terrib still considered two different frogs?

Beth , he has "gold morph" of "golden poison frog". "Golden poison frog" is slang for terribilis. So the assumption would be they are terribilis. But that's not the case. These "gold morph" were tested after visually knowing they were not terribilis. The tests showed they were not terribilis also. They are bi-colors.
Why Sean continues to use the phrase below is beyond me.



"Whether they are a new form of bicolor or true terribilis..."

They are not terribilis.

Chris Miller can probably elaborate, as he was present at the first 'OH CRAP, THESE ARE NOT TERRIBILIS!' import of these. He did not import or buy them, just saw them at the import pick-up.

Yellow terribilis and orange terribilis are considered to different locales by most, yes.

Only someone either ignorant to proper breeding practises , or someone wishing to make 'new lines' and charge more for them. Either way, not a good thing.

It's been wiped out now(my commentary) but on the other site there was an ad for gold terribilis. I inquired whether they were gold terribilis or yellow terribilis and he said same thing. Some of the frogs I bought, the people who sold them called them gold and some called them yellow. He has now switched them to yellow terribilis on his site and in the ad. All this commentary was removed so I can't quote exactly anymore. I'm more than a little worried they were mixed from his response. If no one has ever sold yellow terribilis and called them gold and he has mixed some called yellow and some called gold, I don't know what else to think.
He won't respond to my comment on what his yellow line is in the ad and I can't find an email on his site or in the ad.

He's claiming they are my line. But the funny thing is I have never, ever called my yellow terribilis "gold terribilis".
It would be a huge shame if they were crossed. And I'll be very angry if I find that mixed locales are being sold as my line. Very angry.
