I don't know where PV is, but I assume it's south and should be out of the range of errebennus, but that sure looks like a TXN to me..



PV is on the southwest (Pacific) coast of Mexico. It is completely the wrong side of the continent for erebennus, which is restricted to the lowlands of the gulf coast. The closest that erebennus and rubidus would come together would be near the isthmus of Tehuantepec (hundreds of miles to the east), but there you would see more melanurus influence (and that area is actually the proposed range of orizabensis).



This snake may have some melanurus influence as I don't know where the two subspecies intergrade.



Whatever the subspecies, it was the prettiest indigo I have ever found!
