Notes
Park Species Detail: Per Prival and Goode 2005, "Grace cites two records for this species. One specimen is from the gypsum sand dunes west of Eclipse Well in what is now the Western Expansion Area. The other specimen comes from Highway 62/180 18 km southwest of Pine Springs. We observed this species outside the park west of the Western Expansion Area and vouchered a road-killed snake just outside the park boundary at Nickel Creek in 2004.", Park Species Data Source: Prival and Goode 2005, Bibkey 590642
