John, thanks for posting the photo of that juvenile; I've never seen one before. When I looked at it, I immediately thought: hey, that looks kinda like Gloydius.
The snake you posted:

and Gloydius blomhoffi:

Probably some mimicry going on there, as I imagine schrencki and continental Gloydius sp. share a lot of common range. I'll have to dig into it a bit more when I get a chance.

Happy Holidays,
Shane
