a case of nomenclatural confusion. Whomever made up this list at TPW was working off an outdated list from before the taxonomic reevaluation of SE TX Elaphe (Pantherophis). Since this list is meant to include only species actually native to Texas, and Elaphe guttata is not native to Texas, then I don't see how the rule can hold up in this particular case.
