I have heard talk of the Pantheropis name change but have yet to find anything published on it much less reviewed and made official. Not saying they wont change it but unless I am seeing false info the name Elaphe was the 1st described which according to taxonomic rules means it's the good one. Unless of course they determine it to be incorrect. Still one taxonomist changing a name does not make it official until it is reviewed and passed by others.
I would be very interested in seeing whatever has been written on this so far and by whom.
