Quiz - Identify the Species and Morph (Wild-Caught in AR)

Post by kaptainkory »

I know some herpers don't like quizzes, so... For the rest of us, just for fun, identify the species and the morph. Since so many of you are Jedi masters of the herp world anyway, I'm sure this won't be too difficult. The specimen was caught (not by me, unfortunately) in Washington Co, Arkansas, about a week ago. Good luck! :D

I'll go with Diadophis, too.....the light yellow ring around the neck was a tipoff. Or a hatchling Virginia, possibly.

I was thinking leucistic Ring-necked, as well.
