Nice photos, snkes, and comparison, Matt.



Those tip-o-Texas meahllies have even buggier eyes than other localities (of meahllmorum), I think. Very interesting snakes - but even though most taxonomists would consider those two locaities to be simply "emoryi", I am of the mindset that still considers them subspecies of guttatus. Furthermore, I would suspect that our south Texas meahllmorum are probably more closely related to east Texas guttatus slowinskii than they are to intermontanus.
