While we are waiting for Tim to send us the photo of the snake he wants identified, I noticed that there are a number of new photos in our "Snakes for Identification" section of the Photo Albums.
Take a look at them, and see what you can do to help identify them. A few of the photos are exotic snakes form places like Egypt, and even Patagonia.
There is one photo in particular, that just might require the help of Wolfgang.
See what you all can do to help out, and post the results here after you get a look at them.
Best Regards
John Z

The Egyptian critter is Psammophis schokari, the one posted by Patagonia reptiles is Protobothrops (formerly Triceratolepidophis) sieversorum, and the "baby coral snake" is a coffee snake (Ninia sebae). I will leave it for others to sort out the variopus flavours of rat snake.... ;-)
