The rat snakes in Aiken County, SC are considered to be 3-way intergrades between obsoleta, spiloides, and quadrivittata. There aren't any pure spiloides in SC.



The recognized range of the Yellow Rat Snake goes all the way up to the Pamlico River in NC, sort of like as shown in this range map:

As far as the name "greenish rat", I don't think it has ever been officially described.
