Very nice Terry!,.......
From what I understand, the Everglades(paludicola)has a natural range in the extreme southern area of Florida and the upper Keys, and also around the Merrit Island area, and similar Mangrove habitat near Cape Canaveral. Their irises tend to be a lighter yellowish color as opposed to the brighter red/orange of C.c.priapus as well.
As far as an exact intergrade area, I really haven't a clue, but the one you have there does have very red irises and isn't from these same areas mentioned, so I would go with Southern Black on that one.
