are the pores just enlarged scales or are they in between the scales, i dont see any difference between the male and female variations appart from some slightly larger scales...

im sorry if i am being a noob but it would be easier if i understood what the box meant...

The pores are the black/darker dents IN the scales. Females don't have them, at least in ciliatus... with auriculatus, leachianus and trachyrhynchus females can have pseudo pores.
Here is a picture of one of our leachianus males, hopefully you can see the pores there, male ciliatus also have them
So don't look for something at the tail base, look for something in the vent area.

That is the first picture i have seen where i can notice a difference...

Thank you very much for the help

What magnification would you need to see those on a 4-5" crestie?
