Steve:
In my opinion, you have N. burkei. As to whether that's a species, or
a geographically segregated variety of N. ventricosa isn't a
discussion for this forum, I'd guess. I personally believe many cp
"species" are color and / or shape variations and not genetically
different enough to be separated taxonomically.
But then, using botanical taxonomy criteria, I'd split to 4 genera,
and dozens of species of the genus Homo.
