Park Species Detail: per Platenberg & Graham: "one unverified specimen in NPS voucher list. Could be young gopher snake. This habitat is unlikely for this species."
Graham, 2000 also lists this species as E? (Unconfirmed). We had TICA send this voucher for Certification - it checked out to be H. torquata., Park Species Data Source: Platenberg and Graham 2003, Bibkey #548504
