Territorial behaviour – sexual differences?

Thank you again!!

This is all very interesting. And of course I have seen certain colouration states in my pair of nagyi – the states that are usually shown by a pair …..

It’s a bit more difficult in my 4 new paros – which neither reveal their sexes nor their species affiliation.

And I have some additonal questions:
– I understand that state 2 of males is similar to state 3 of females – is that right?
– Do I get it right, Peter, that only females may (in state 4) show some sort of speckled markings? There are no speckles in males?

I took the part concerning my “mysterious paros” out and will place it in the corresponding thread. Don’t want to mix it with this thread to keep up it’s general purpose.
