Cole is right, of course, but there's a lot more information to be found -- from photos to a thorough habitat description -- in the original published description of campbelli:
Quinn, H. R. 1983. Two New Subspecies of Lampropeltis triangulum from México. Trans. Kansas Acad. Sci. 86 (4). pgs. 113-135
Shoot me a message if you have any trouble finding the paper.

On a somewhat peripheral note, this was also the article that first described L. t. dixoni. It's intriguing to me that one of the described species went on to become one of the most historically popular milk snake species in captivity, while the other seems to have faded into complete obscurity. I would love to find some of these so if anyone knows of someone working with Dixon's please drop me a line!
Cheers,
Brad
