You got the names right, but the examples mixed up. Suriname is an example of BCC, while Columbian is an example of BCI.

BCC includes surinam, guyana, peruvian and I think I'm forgetting one? those three are the most common though.

BCI includes colombian, nicaraguan, central american, hog island, corn island, and possibly some others..

there is a total of 10 boa constrictor subspecies.. BCI being the most common followed closely by BCC.
