Posted by: vin russo at Tue Aug 10 11:59:01 2010 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by vin russo ] Yes - all of the Saboga boas that Rich Ihle myself and Gus ( and a bunch more breeders here in the U.S. ) have are from Saboga Island in the Pearl Island Archipelago ( hence the name boa c. sabogae ). The Boas in Europe that are sold as Taboga boas are in my opinion Boa c. imperator. I say this because of two main reasons. First - Taboga is only a mile or so from Panama & therefore there is no genetic isolation from the mainland ( Boa c. imperator can swim to & from that island ). Secondly - the Taboga boas resemble & make both Hypo & Normal phase mainland looking boas( more evidence of imperator blood ). As for Saboga Island - that Island - is over 50 miles out in the Ocean & hence Genetic Isolation is the reason they are a recognised & valid sunspecies ( and yes - even CITES recignizes them as a valid Subspecies & the scientific community too ).
