Hi Junglec
There is are quite a variable difference in regards to colour, size and over all appearance within the spotted's and stimpsons group of pythons to be found in North Queensland....and yes Nephrurus; most of us Northerner's are quite different ...some people have blonde ambition; others are just brunette's
The term "Platinum" was a name we had given to a rather different form of Mac; mostly due to it's odd colouration, and pattern. Most of these Mac's appear platinum in colour; which often change's as they age into yellowish tones; that is remarkably different to all other northern forms; that tend to be quite light in colour....hence the term "Blondes".... compared to the often brownish Southern forms.
There is also a locality miniature type of Stimpson's python....the biggest i'd ever seen was 32cm's in length.... these are very banded in appearance...cheers
