Nice stuff! Looks like it was mostly too cold outside of east Texas... Good to see some familiar places. Big Bens is my favorite spot in Texas.

Also, it's safe to remove the parentheses around getula. :D

BTW, the use of parentheses in this way is actually wrong. While I use this to indicate doubt, the ICNZ apparently reserves the use of parentheses for subgenera only (=> Genus (Subgenus) species).

I see what you're saying, let's avoid this discussion. One thing though, is that Burbrink has had several terrible splits. I invite you to google Kingsnake intergrades...
