What I was atually alluding to is that natalensis has been elevated to a full species, and is no longer considered to be a ssp of sebae. (Broadley 1999).
Just for shins & giggles, I'm working on obtaining a hard copy of the paper in question, as I'd like to know what data Broadley used to support his determination.

Wow, I did not know that. Thanks for sharing! If you get a hold of that paper, I would LOVE to see it!
Damon, I will take your word on having the snakes, just for the sake of argument. It was a bad night when I first posted on that message about the striped rocks...so no hard feelings? Cool? Cool.
I have been known to call mine a pinstripped patternless on occasion. I just snapped that night.
And yes, I am a friend of Jay's and I am a Laird (or Lord if you would prefer)
