As fas as I know, the peninsular amp only have a few varieties, the most common ones will be the speckled and green amps. There's also some with brownish peristome and pinkish peristome (in very shaded condition). I have also heard there's some tricolor variety found in southern Peninsular Malaysia but I haven't seen it myself.
Nepnut, I found many interesting neps during my last few trips to Southern Peninsular. Just to mention a few:

N Gracilis Speckle (Dark Maroon, Pink/red, Green)
N Amp Red Lip (Green, Speckle, Tricolour)
N Amp Red / Pink (Speckle) !! Aka. Sun Roasted Amp. Heh heh
N Raff Green (Only 1 plant)
N xHookeriana (Tricolour)
N xHookeriana Brown Lip (minor speckle)
N xTrichocarpa Red Lip (Speckle) (second plant found so far)
N Gracilis x N Raff (Pink) !! (only 1 plant)

I will only post the pictures in stages. So that your temperature will remain high for the next few weeks. Ha ha ha
