    It is probably a dwarf. Since it is still a juvenile, it is hard to determine the species. There are four basic traits that the dwarfs have that the giant doesn't: 1) the tympanum (ear drum) has a cream-color spot; 2) the distance between the eye and tympanum is about one eye diameter; 3) upper jaw with irregular, pale vertical bars; and 4) a pale interorbital bar.
