I am sorry but that is absolute nonsense.If we disregard colour and markings then what?The head shape is different ,eye size is different body shape is different and what about those smooth scales?
Tony i see my comment pretty much word for word the same as yours was deleted/removed?? The point is that there are plenty of "experts" here and the problem comes in when someone asks for an ID of a snake and then get told a very wrong ID - this could kill someone. Just not on in my books and have no idea why factual "uitrap" comments are deleted??

Looks like it's hard to be a true expert as well as an all round nice guy...
The shame of being corrected on a public forum should be enough to discourage people to make incorrect statements.
