I am not sure what your thinking, as if there are pure(only) black kings anywhere or something, there is not. Black kings are more common is some areas then others, but everywhere there is black kings, there is also splendida.

Even here in Az where the pure black ones(no banding or speckling) there is also normal kings. It appears to be a bit like stripe kings and banded kings in San Diego co. One kind of snake, several kinds of patterns.

I sat and looked at Hubbs map with him once, The map was not very accurate, not wrong, but a long way from right. My opinion was based on this area, where I have seen kings over many decades.

ALso Hubbs maps do not recognize the latest discriptions, which says all these are one snake. Best wishes
