Posted by: TOM_CRUTCHFIELD at Thu Dec 24 08:27:13 2009 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by TOM_CRUTCHFIELD ] That's the point Everglades Rat's have ALWAYS in my lifetime been found in the same areas as Yellow Rat's were. Some areas seem to have more than others like down here in Homestead. I used to work for Ross Allen in the 60's and knew Wilifred T. Neil as well so I'm more than aware of when it was described. Actually I discovered the first populations of Queen Water Snakes in Jackson County, Floriday and Neil published a paper on it. This was likely about 1964-65. They were collected in Spring Creek near Marianna, Florida my birthplace. Again I stand by my theory that Everglades Rat's are a natural occuring morph of the Yellow Rat Snake that are erythrystic. Usually Everglades Rat's are not found north of Lake Okeechobee but an occasional one is found even that far north. [ Hide Replies ]
