This specimen of Caenoplana coerulea definitely had different colouring and two lighter stripes that I haven't seen in this species yet. Are they diverging genetically, or is this just normal variation?

The lighter stripes are often inconspicuous. In this specimen, the overall ground colour is lighter, and the stripes are more prominent.
