| Diagnosis | DIAGNOSIS: Rhadinaea bogertorum seems to be most closely related to, and likely to be confused with, one or two other species of the decorata group that also occur in the state of Oaxaca. It most nearly resembles the geographically isolated R. myersi,as both species have only a weak indication ofa narrow, dark vertebral line, and a gray or black lateral line that may be interrupted by a pale spot on the upper part of each scale in row 4. But R. bogertorumhas a greater number of ventral plates, and the male organ has a larger capitulum, which comprises at least half the length of the hemipenis (sulcate side) rather than about two-fifths as in myersi. Rhadinaea bogertorum is distinguished from the neighboring R. macdougalli in having more ventrals, a slightly different pattern (see Remarks), and probably in larger size and more maxillary teeth. (Myers 1974). |
