    It's a much larger range than T.s. concinnus that's for sure.

    I really like that last white striped one. Bottom pic, upper left. Nice. Looks very gravid too. You know, it's funny, you can go just 5 or 10 miles away and the ordinoides found will be completely different. There's a population near me that has mostly very dark colored snakes with very faint stripes and no patterns like the bottom pic, lower right. 3 miles from that, there's a population that is mostly orange or red striped brown snakes with lots of orange flecks.

    Some more examples of T. ordinoides. ALL of these guys are from the same population and found in the same area of Oregon as the snakes Redspot has shown us:

    This picture made me wonder if your Red single striped ordinoides ever delivered? The one you were advertising in the classifieds. ??
