Well that sure is a possibility! Honestly though, I really would not be able to tell the difference...like most all of the other ridiculously similar Zoa and Palys IDs! Drives me nuts.

I'm pretty sure the Princess Toadstools are quite a bit smaller than the Pink Elephants if that helps to try and identify.

Yeah I don't know...the paly I have has the "rays" of green in the center like the Pink Elephant although you can't see that in my photo. I think mine look a smidge more like Pink Elephants than Princess Toadstools. Mine are about 12-14 mm across.

Anyone have an ID for these? Green Oral slit with some interesting striations coming from the slit, green tips on the frills as well.

Not a PPE morph of any sort(I don't think anyway). These are smaller and are mottled green/orange and have a small fluorescent orange mouth. I have pics but no time to upload right now. I'll try to get them up after work. I've seen yellow mouths and green mouths but never orange.
