Notes

Found on rocky limestone hillside. Not a snake you would expect to find around here. There is one other record of a torquata in Kendall County county (recorded by Werler and Dixon) that I have been able to find. Hopefully further searches in the area will reveal that these snakes are still doing well in parts of the county.
