One more note. Greenish Rat Snakes are just one of the natural shades of Yellow Rat Sankes. They are found that way in the nothern part of their range, and they are not intergrades with Blacks.

Greenish rats are in fact intergrades with the black rat snake. See the following reference material:

Palmer, W. M. and A. L. Braswell. 1995. Reptiles of North Carolina University of North Carolina Press, Chapel Hill NC. pp 162-167.

On page 165 there is a map of the intergrade zone where the intergrades may be found.
