Southern Cross Guessing comp.Woma,Blackhead,Jungle as prize

[Mangles]

Not sure which one I missed out on either?

 

[OzGecko]

I'm with Sdaji and Mangles, not sure what bit I missed??? I think it must be to do with the distribution, but I just described the distribution maps from most texts.

 

[snakehunter]

Could you please tell us which answers we got wrong? I read that the predominant food item is scorpions? And the common name is Western Hooded Scaly Foot. I am pretty sure I got all of those right with the possible exception of the suborder because of a slight spelling variation?

 

[Slateman]

Out of curiosity, which answer did I get wrong?

You give the common name of "Hooded Scaly-foot", which presumably means you don't recognise Pygopus schraderi or Pygopus steelscotti (these species must also be lumped in with P. nigriceps in order for your distribution answer to be correct as P. nigriceps is absent from many hot arid regions which are inhabited by the other two Hooded Scaly-foots).

Insects make up the bulk of the diet of many Scaly-foots of all species; all readily consume insects and spiders (as well as scorpions and other arthropods).

You had nothing wrong there and your answer is one of the best we received. But Simon asked in first part to use word Lizard. anybody who said lizard after Sauria received extra .5 point. There was .5 point for Sauria and .5 point for Lizard.
This was not my condition I just fallowed instruction given.

 

[Slateman]

i havent guesed anything yet i assume i cant just join in aye?

I don't see reason why not to join now. It is fun.

 

[Slateman]

Not sure which one I missed out on either?

Same like Sadaji mate.
Your answer was right, just missed on the extra bonus for word lizard.

 

[Sdaji]

Wow, harsh! Sauria literally means lizard and you could only get it right if you knew that's what it was

Okie doke, let's have the next one!

distribution was not perfect, you mist something there you mist on bonus .5 point.

In your case I missed 1 point, I am sorry. I am fixing your score now. to 4 points.

you did not get only 2x .5 point for question n. 5 and 1. World lizard and Spiders.

Thank you
