Re: Herp books for sale
For the Stebbins books, how "west" is "west?" Is TX included? I don't have my current guides handy with which to compare.

Re: Herp books for sale
Neither of the two guides cover Texas. But if the species is found in a neighboring such as New Mexico then its whole range is shown on the range map.

I'll take the '66 Stebbins, I bought mine in 1960 so it must have been a '54 and has since been lost. PM me for payment details. Thanks, Art

That's an Arizona Mountain kingsnake (Lampropeltis p. pyromelana) on the cover of the Clifford H. Pope book. That specimen has quite a few black "crossovers"dwarfboakeeper wrote:

that leave thin red conical shaped markings on the side known in the hobby as "flames". That is how they got their Latin name "pyromelana" in the first place which literally means fire red and black.
Awesome books man!
Here's a photo by Troy Hibbits that looks very similar.
