    Question Brazilian Rainbow boa (E. c. cenchria)?

    Is E. c. cenchria the correct scientific name for a Brazilian Rainbow Boa? If not, what is it? I'm looking specifically for the Brazilian Rainbow boa, not just a Rainbow Boa. I googled it and couldn't find it.

    Yes, it is the correct name, although I believe that they do exist naturally outside the borders of Brazil... but this is the correct species name for the snake commonly known as the "Brazilian rainbow boa."

    I know that they can exist outside of Brazil I was trying to be as specific as possible, because I know that there are Columbian Rainbow Boas, too.
