Latest literature calls them Southwestern rat snakes (Elaphe (Pantherophis) emoryi meahllmorum). "Texas Snakes, A Field Guide" James R. Dixon and John E. Werler (Nov. 2005, University of Texas Press). Some feel they should be P. guttatus meahllmorum.



Here's my favorite Nueces County female. Over 4 ft long and more than 700 grams. WC from the busy Airline / Cimmaron area of Corpus Christi. Mother to 2 clutches so far. Giving her this year off from breeding.
