>>Somewhere in my old slides I have photos of two snakes (one DOR) that were found back in '73 - '74 in the vicinty of El Palmito on hwy 40 at the Sinaloa/Durango border. At the time we could not figure out what they were. The DOR was given to the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History as they were one of the signers of my collecting permit. I think I shipped the other one a couple of years later to a friend in England who was with me
>>on the trip.
>>I have been searching for the slides as this subject came up a while back. So far all I have found is some habitat shots.
>>While on the suject of El Palmito, has anyone ever had a Dryodophis clifftoni from that same area? We collected one and it took me over a year to ID it.

Pete....I wish you could find those photographs.....I would love to see them.....
As far as Dryadophis Cliftoni......I think they are only from that area.....I think Hardy described this lizard eater in 1964.........
