Up :/ Nobody can help me about how i can be sure than i have a proximus diabolicus or a sauritus sackenii ?

Without a history of origin I find no visual indications to go against the pet stores identification.

I agree, it looks like diabolicus and that's what the shop said it was so without any history of origin you'll have to trust that they got it right.

Agree. Got my Eastern & Westerns mixed up.. It's why the scientific names are usually the better route.

T. p. diabolicus

What do you mean by 'Got my Eastern & Westerns mixed up' ?

Wow nice snake!! I'm no expert but I have been looking through a good many of sites/pics of these because mine is very similar. This really looks like a T. Sauritus Sackenii (peninsula ribbon) with the greyish brown color and no dots on the head (or little to none from the pic). They usually have either no spots on the head or sometimes they do but they are pale . Its good to see that your able to handle it. I'm trying to find one so mine has some company.I would take a pic but I recently moved and mine is still skiddish from the move finally eating again today.

The Peterson Field Guide describes T.p.diabolicus as with the typical orange vertebral stripe of the western ribbons. It's poor practice to latch on to a specific perimeter though as individual variation can be rampant.
