Thanks for the explanation and Aaron for asking.

I admit I have a heard time wrapping my head around all this as well and it needs to sink in. Or maybe it is the hula lessons I am late for .

I also always thought color phases were intergrades.. but what about pops in a life zone like the black and white desert striped phase near Borrego? It always made sense to me the yellow striped and B&W desert bandeds meet there and that is why we have B&W stripers in that small area alone.

Or the eastern getula which according to the DNA study (Krysco) says that eatern kings and Florida kings take up everything from north Florida down 300 miles into Florida as an intergrade zone?

Is DNA reliable?

I tend to relate everything to rosy boas.. which might be way off the mark comparing them to kingsnakes.
