This is true! Small populations were discovered on the west coast of Tasmania very close to Blotched populations; they're about half the size of regular Shinglebacks, green (more green than konowi shingleback) and blue tongued of course. They are saying it will be admitted to Tiliqua most likely.

No relation to those Rottness Island greens we saw a while back then!!

Well, that's the konowi, but they are very similar! Just greener and smaller....but pretty much equally concentrated on the coast... (only tasmania, not rottnest)

Wow! He's got the Kimberly Freckling thing going on! So he's a mouldy pepper steak, huh! (well, ok, he's not fuzzy, but he is green!)
What a good find, I hope that they preserve the habitat now, and that this isn't all a big Zach joke!

The head doesnt look BTSish. To me it appears to resemble more of a monitor head.

To me it looks like that goofy hybrid on the care sheet.

I think the head looks geckoish, but with shingles.
