Unusual for the Persian Gulf. Usually they have the two rings linked or broken up.Comment from Richard Willan on photo #13689
A very interesting photo showing individuals of two colour forms side by side. The form without any golden spots (represented by the larger individual) is very uncommon.Comment from Richard Willan on photo #6531
