Stebbins states: "In more arid parts of range a contrastingly banded color phase occurs (formerly regarded as a distinct species, R. clarus) that usually lacks red in interspaces and has scant black spotting on sides....."

This one is from near Bagdad, AZ, Yavapai County.

Unfortunately the first one I saw was a DOR down in Borrego Springs, CA last weekend.
