Rosy Boa Taxonomy
What is the latest accepted taxonomy of Rosy Boas? I only ask this because I have a new Rosy that I caught in Ramona, CA, and I like to label them on the enclosure with a photo and the common name and scientific name. I labeled her a Coastal Rosy Boa, Lichanura Trivirgata Roseofusca. But now I'm finding out that may be older classification - that all rosies should now be classified only as Lichanura Orcutti. So what do the experts think? Lichanura trivirgata, with two subspecies (Some even say four subspecies), or Lichanura Orcutti to cover them all?
