Biaufurd* states "colour uniform brown in all the skins 1 have 

 e.xamiiu'd but described as black by Anderson f, perhaps variable." Of 

 7'ai/)(t j/u'cry-ra he says + "Uniform velvety black when fresh . . . . 

 dried skins often brown," so it maj" be that instead of being variable 

 i'. leucera also undergoes a change of colour after death.
