You should try the Douglas et al paper in the Biology of the Vipers published in 2002 by Eagle Mountain publishing. It has that paper on viridis/oreganus complex of the Colorado Plateau. Also check out Pook et al (2000) and Ashton & de Queiroz (2001). They both concern taxonomy of the viridis/oreganus complex. You can download the Pook paper on Wolfgang Wuster's (co-author) site at:

http://biology.bangor.ac.uk/~bss166/

You can also get the full citations for those papers I mentioned on Wolfgang's site.

I am working with cerberus and I know there are several other breeders out there. I would just keep an eye open on the classifieds.
