U.S. Reptile Identification
|
|
I used to have a
dichotomous key online here, but I don't think anyone but diehard
herpers would actually bother to use it! Therefore, I
replaced it with the following state-by-state links to reptile ID
pages. |
|
Basically, click the
link for the state in which you found the reptile, and you'll
probably find a match for the mystery animal. If not,
consider looking at the links for the states AROUND the state in
which you found the reptile. If THAT doesn't solve the
mystery, you can always email me (anything addressed to the
McMartinVille.com domain will work) with a description and
preferably a pic. I'll either give you a positive ID, or forward
it to someone who can! |
|
NOTE: If there is
no link for your state, and you have a link for a
reasonably-complete (i.e. not just a local/regional site, but a
statewide site with more than just "the most common
species" represented), please email me and I'll add it.
If you need a guide to amphibians, the Global
Amphibian Assessment is an excellent tool.

AK potentially has two native snake species (both are garter
snakes, Thamnophis spp. and are unconfirmed), and only
occasional sea turtle visits. |
