Ceratophrys cornuta vs. Fantasy

[earthtiger]

Hi,

are there any (obvious) signs / characters to tell a Fantasy apart from a real C. cornuta?

Are these C. cornuta or Fantasy frogs?

Pic 8471_0 looks like a C Cornata to me while Pc 8471_1 looks like either a very wild colored Fantasy or an Ornate

The bottom one seems to be a tri color fantasy.

This is my fantasy "Fanta" . They look quite similar.

Both are fantasy

Cornutas will have a solid black / brown throat. Take the one in this picture for example.

Picture 15 of 40 from Cornuta

I've seen pictures of some fantasy frogs that look almost identical to Cornuta, but they don't have the dark chin/throat like that frog in the picture.

both genders?

...are there any other characters - besides the black throat - to tell them apart? Or do I mainly have to trust a seller and maybe my gut feelings, if they are C. cornuta or not?

The Black/Brown throat is the only true way.
