The checker-board pattern is usually cream colour and jet black The Striped Snakes—Garter Snakes THE WASHINGTON GARTER SNAKE Eutcenia elegans, variety biscutata, (Cope) Some specimens of the E. elegans group—Western GarterSnake—from Washington and Oregon, that appeal strongly inpattern and colours to the variety vagrans, have been given adistinct varietal name owing to the existence of two or threeplates in front of the eye (preoculars) in place of the single plate,found with other forms. Upon this character, has beenfounded the variety biscutata of Cope. The character is not a con-stant one. Occasional specimens have but a single plate on oneside of the head and two plates on the other. Some have threeon each side. The rounded character of the body spots andthe blackish abdomen, associate this form with vagrans, withwhich its dimensions tally. MARCYS GARTER SNAKE
