do DPs have spines?

I took couple of shots of my DPs today again!
And on one of them we see pretty well little white spots (especialy on the head and tail). These are not ich because I've seen them at the exactly same spots for the last month! They are not easy to see, but they haven't moved! So I was wondering if it could be their mini spines or if DPs don't have spines at all? I remember another thread where someone showed pictures of an F8 (I think) and someone mentioned the white spots as being the spines. Is this the same thing you think?

For those that followed the "DP with suspiciously big belly" thread, this is my little Fidji all happy again! :D

Yep those are where the spines are. They only appear when they puff though. Cute puffer.

They're very small, even if he did puff you would be hard pushed to see them.
