Jaremy,
. If you look at a map of Peru you will see that the country is very mountainous. The northeastern half of the country drains down north and east into the Amazon and it's earliest tributaries. The southern part of Peru drains south and west down the other side of the mountains into small rivers and then into the Pacific. I am not certain but I would guess that the mountains make a natural divide between the two subspecies. The elevations are way too high to be suitable habitat for a Rainbow Boa.

>>So Peruvians are from the south of Peru, huh. I have often wondered that. Isn't there probably a wide area where Brazilians & Peruvians crossbreed making it even harder to identify of find a true Peruvian?
