The form of Aphyosemion australe that comes from Cape Lopez, Gabon.

Aphyosemion australe Chocolate/Brown form

The "aquarium strain" chocolate or brown form has been in the hobby for about 100 years.

GOLD variety

Ingtroduced by the Finnish breeder Hjerreson in the 1950's, thought to be line bred from the chocolate form, the recent importation of wild gold killies from Cape Lopez makes me doubt the originals were brown.

YELLOW mutation

This occurs very infrequently as as of 2005 nobody has been able to fix the strain.
