    wish I would have seen this first 2-5 were too easy. 4 at first glance really look like gsp, but they have bristles like Anthellia...could you take another pic? is it green? i still kinda think its gsp though

    Phoenix, Dingo and Reeferdude are spot on. #1 could be a scoly or trachy hard to tell from the pic.
