According to Broadley's paper, N. ashei, occur in Kenya, north into Southern Somalia and Southeastern Ethiopia.

They are more closely aligned with N. mossambica rather than N. nigricollis.

Average postocular scales is 2, as opposed to 3 on N nigricollis.

The "jury" is still out on this new "species" (my opinion)

Perhaps Donald or Wolfgang can weigh in here.
