    Hmm...not really, no. Members of both groups (Pantherophis and Lampropeltis)can be found in the same environments and even the same species (split into subspecies) can be found in different environments. For example, the cornsnake and the Great Plains ratsnake are technically the same species, yet found in very different habitats and ranges.

    There's more to determining these things than just range and behavior.
    Hey, range detail just isn't my thing. I meant that the Kingsnake's range was different from the Rat snake's range. And I don't think the locations really matter to anyone unless they're herpers.

    My snakes:
    0.1 Kenyan Sand Boa ~Nephthys~ (aka "Linky")

    In a better place:
    1.0 Pastel Western Hognose ~Charon~ 10/3/07-4/24/09

    If you need/want to know anything about Hognose snakes, just ask me.
