Yea, if you look on Wikipedia it has the range map for what it got split into, but you have to search S. undulatus to see the map. But the Arizona site for herps is amazing, they update it often and it's super helpful!
Thanks Ashley, the other link probably needs to be updated. It showed a range map that went as far as Arizona.
S. undulatus is not found in Arizona. It got split into four different species back in 2002, S undulatus is only in the east.
