Achatina immaculata var "two-tone"

[Leah]

I know this has been gone over a million times but I'm very confused.

This is Sid.


I bought him a few months ago and was told he was an Achatina dimidiata.

But I know theres been a lot of confusion and I don't really follow it so can you tell me what he is, or how I can tell?

Achatina dimidiata doesnt exist, he is a Achatina (Lissachatina) immaculata var. two-tone

ok thanks hun. I got confused because I wasn't sure if dimidiata didn't exist, or if they did but had just got very confused with immaculata.
