: Once considered a subspecies of emoryi. But, as noted by Schulz they are quite different from other emoryi. This is of course probably due to their isolation from other populations of emoryi. They sort of look like a cross between a Glossy snake and a Corn Snake to me. Hope to produce some next season.

Scott,

I believe that "intermontana" is currently classified as E. guttata emoryi, and I agree with you that they seem quite different. I just picked up a pair of F1 neonates from w. CO stock, pics below, that I plan on working with. They have some unique characteristics and are a cool snake.
