Field Notes

Description:

This is a gravid female. The body is tan with lights spots and two black rings around the neck. The character that tells me she is gravid are the orange spots on the side of the body. Juveniles have these too, but she was much to large to be a juvenile.

Habitat:

Found under a rock in desert scrub area.
