Rhampholeon rhinodigitum spinosus 2004 ?

[casperpetersen]

just the other day I saw that Spinosus have ben under rhinodigitum by Matthee is that true ? ... I am asking because I can´t recall that I have seen that info before...or maybe I have failed saveing it in my memorybank(my head)

I have lost all my sceintific papers(pdf) due to my pc "died" so I can´t double check there (stupid unstable electronic devices)

No, this is not true. Rh. spinosus was not included in Matthee et al.'s analysis. They did not assign it to a subgenus at all.
