It does have a certain pumilio familiarity to it, but I've never seen one that looks like that- good find!

it does look very pumilio-like. The skin is very slimmy though, a lot like a hystironicus

Why would you say it looks like a hybrid?

I'm really interested if someone can accurately identify it though.

Perhaps it's a form of minutus, they tend to have blue bellies.
