The way ringnecks look these days doesn't matter much... According to some people there is no such thing as "sub-species" in ringnecks.
Regardless, snakes get loose here and there, ringnecks breed with ringnecks, sub-species doesn't matter to them.
Therefore you will find southern ringnecks in New Jersey, and you'll find northern ringnecks in places where they don't belong.
The snake in the picture is a southern.
I've seen specimens with no spots, half moons, scattered spots, complete neck rings, broken rings, not every snake is gonna be the same and fit the description of that sub-species to a T.
