In Reply to: Black tongue, I\'d say that it isn\'t a lindheimeri ... more posted by patricia sherman on August 08, 2002 at 21:56:15:

:Although it is rather lightly coloured, it certainly looks like an E. o. obsoleta. They're very variable, and those from more southern locales tend to be more lightly coloured than those from the northern extremes of their range. The tongue tells the story. If it was an E. o. lindheimeri, it would have an unmistakeable orangey-red tongue. Also, the colour between the blotches would be more reddish if it were a lindheimeri.

:My lindheimeri male's ground colour is almost a salmon pink. Another telling point, is the fact the blotches on your snake aren't highly contrasting to the ground colour. Although the snake has a lot of yellow, it more closely resembles my "greenish" E. o. o., than it does my E. o. l.
