Haha, exactly! I was almost thinking they looked like Kern plateau intergrades...or even the higher crossover intergrades in the Cascades. Gorgeous, none the less.

Maybe I have my brain mixed up but I thought lower temps would increase the black pigment? I probably read it wrong, but I figured the cooler the incubation temps, the darker the animals produced, due to thermoregulation needs.

Miks in general are confusing to me haha. Too many subspecies! That's why I stick to my love of zonata...and rubber boas haha!
