Default Lygodactylus Angularis

I have a question about these guys. I have never heard of Angulus before but recently picked up a 1.2 of them. I cannot find them talked about at all, are these guys actually called something else? I have a few pictures that I snapped of them in their quarintine setup with my cell phone, im sorry they are horrible though, but hopefully you are still able to get a general idea of the lygos in the pictures

These are capensis. From what I have read, people often refer to capensis coming from Tanzania as angularis, but there is no such species.

How can you tell the difference between angularis and capensis? Im not doubting you, just trying to learn myself also btw, it is off subject, but does anyone know what the gecko on the banner of this website is? WOW! Echsen.de - Terraristik Reptilien Kleinanzeigen - - Lygodactylus - Zwerggeckos/Lygodactylus capensis - Kap Zwerggecko

Ones people refer to as angularis have angulated patterns on their back, these are capensis from Tanzania. Capensis from South Africa have stripes. Both are plain old capensis, just different locality.
