Most of the Antaresia's - Childreni, Maculosa, Stimsoni and Perthensis.
By far, the hardest to obtain, the most expensive and smallest of the lot is A. Perthensis. They usually go for about $1000 to $1500 and can only be kept in some states. The rest can vary from $150 (i.e. childreni) to $500 (wheatbelt stimmie) .

2 foot max size generally. They are only found in the Kimberly region (correct me if I'm wrong) of WA. They cannot be collected, have very small clutches, hard to start feeding because of the hatchling size.
