Sorry Nessy. I don't have data for T.s. parietalis, but it would be fun to start a database for reference among forum members. All it would take is for people to post their subcaudal scale counts (like you, Bob, and I are doing) and say what species/subspecies they have, OR they could post clear pictures of their snakes from the vent to the tail spike and mention what subspecies they have.

Bob,
I got 66 on your snake before the tail went behind that handle (or whatever) in your picture. Your camera really takes nice pictures. Let us know the final count, okay?
