my new Th.s.similis

[Scott F]

It looks like a young similis to me, if you compare her to the ones I have there are white fleckings throughout the body, which is indicative of similis fleckings. She has some growing to do, and she should color up moreso.

Only time can tell....... I guess a DNA test could tell as well........ and probably a few other things I have failed to mention.

Dein Englisch ist doch recht gut

Hey Annabell,
beautiful snake anyway. Did you read the article in the "DRACO-Strumpfbandnattern" about the differences of some similar looking species? Pages 55 to 59 are dealing with florida blue and similis. And on similis.info there is a comparison between this two species too (button: Über similis).
Maybe this is helping you a little bit.
Gruß Florian

Da lob ich mir Leo.org und Google Sprachtools In der Schule hatte ich immer eine vier in Englisch.

@ florian: Yes, I have seen the article. Thanks But it´s still difficult for me.

@ Scott: Do you mean, that she could to be a similis?

She is circa 30 cm long. I read, the blue color come with size and age?!

Here is another photo without flashlight, maybe it help?



I think, she doesn´t look like a real "Florida blue". But she could be a hybrid between "Florida blue" and similis at former generation?!
What do you think?

that picture makes a world's difference to me!!!! That definitely looks like a similis now! you can see it all in the head!

I agree - on this photo she looks totally like a similis

Ooooh, I hate my camera -.-´ Apparent flashlight isn´t favorably ever.
