Do you have a copy of Ken Williams monograph on the milksnakes? He covers the meristic differences for all the subspecies in that very well.

Thanks!

......from a Dec. 12 thread that supposedly had four copies of the Williams monograph available. You may try it and see if you can still get one there. This monograph is a MUST for anyone seriously interested in milk snakes.

Good luck.

......and there are three left. The least expensive one is the 1978 first edition. You will want to get the 1988 second edition (unless you would like one of each)
The second edition is the more complete and updated version. Also more color plates in it.
