amarali from brazil ( to me ) almost always look like a mix of bolivian amarali and brazilian constrictor, even known pure lines of brazilian bcc and brazilian bca tend to have tons of similiarities all of the recent litters that ive seen had incredibly short tails and an amaraliesque head then there are litters of documentably pure south brazilian amarali that look more constrictor the the former mentioned i suspect a there is some natural mixing of the two ssps. and would almost venture to say they should more be labeled as locality specific rather then ssp. specific
