Wow! Thanks for responding so quickly! I have been very curious about the Madison county population of triangulum for quite a while now. I can not make a statement about those particular animals because I currently have no grounds for comparison. I believe I do understand what you were saying about the isolated populations. If the snakes are in fact isolated by barriers of some sort then there is definately a reduction in the gene pool that may account for some shared phenotypic similarity between the animals of the area. However, do you believe it to be possible to collect enough data or specimans to confirm any similarity in these popultions? I would really just love to gain some ground of comparison for the animals that I have collected. Unfortunately, I do not still have those particular specimans but I am confident that there will be more to come soon. I do have plenty of pictures and even some video tape....hehehe. They were quite the find. Anyway, I can not wait to further discuss this. I will email you tommorrow because I am extremely sleepy right now. Thanks for your interest and your help.

Chris J
