Even "plain" garters are beautiful, Brandon!!

brandon0133 · 11-05-2007, 05:07 PM

well does anyone even know what kinda garters they are? and what does this kinda stuff mean

7.6T. s sirtalis- Eastern Garter
1.0 T. s concinnus- Oregon Red-spotted
1.1 T. e vagrans- Wandering Garter

I'm not sure what kind you have, I'd have to look through all your old posts to see pics, I know you have at least one eastern (t. s. sirtalis) and you mentioned some having red spots, which I think could be a couple of different types. And not to mention, I'm not exactly a pro at the identification game yet! As for all the numbers, they are used to describe what sex and species you have. for example:
1.1.0 t.s sirtalis would mean you have 1 male, 1 female and no juveniles of Eastern garter. There are a few threads going that explain that further, I'm still learning it myself. It does look kind of cool at the bottom of your signature to have all that! You should try to figure it out for yours, you have quite the collection!!

Brandon, your larger two Garters are Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis Red Sided Garters. As you already know, the smaller one is an Eastern T. s. sirtalis.
