I think my previous post wasn't clear enough. The snakes named "goini" by Neill would today be considered Meansi/Getula intergrades.

When Krysko defined the kingsnakes in that area, "goini" was not used because it originally represented only intergrades between Getula and what was then an unnamed subspecies (now meansi).

Personally I dislike the name meansi, and would have bent the rules and used goini had it been my choice.
