Can someone point out a way to definitively key a corn snake as to whether it is guttata or slowinskii without knowing the geography of the specimen involved...

(I'm not asking for a debate on whether they are a valid species, subspecies, nor morph. I need to know how to prove to someone that a particular snake is slowinskii or not. scale counts, ventral pattern, something specific other than "I caught it in louisiana, it has to be slowinskii)



Thanks
