San Bernadino Mountain King?

prpipes1 Nov 11, 2004 04:57 PM

Finally I have pics so I will try to post one Here if anyone agrees with me on what this is could you let me know? I got them as parvirubra and I just want to be positive.

Ah, the San Bernardino Mountain kingsnake. The first subspecies to be commercially collected in quantity.

From glancing at the pic there is nothing to determine it is not parvriubra. However a closer pic would be much better for a definite identification.

Is this close enough I know it is a little blurry but. I am still trying to figure out how to take good closeups.
