I noticed your use of Pantherophis instead of Elaphe. The most recent information I have (link below, p. 7) indicates that this name change for North American rat snakes had been suggested in a Russian journal of herpetology based on molecular data but had not yet been accepted by the SSAR. Has there been any change in this?
