Hi there. Since you know the identity of your organism, please go ahead and fill in the scientific name field. This allows the spotting to fully enter the database and become complete, letting groups and individuals use the data and find your spotting. It also takes the spotting off the "unidentified" list. Thank you!
Here's a great Project Noah blog entry that explains the spotting process:

Great find! I love snakes : ) I'm blown away by the morphological diversity among milk snakes. I have a pet Honduran Milk Snake (L. triangulum hondurensis), and her coloration and patterning look nothing like this one's. She's bright orange with black bands (a "tangerine" color variant). It's incredible that they are the same species, just a different subspecies.
