| Summary: | We report the first records of two species of
snake in the state of Jalisco, Mexico. We recorded one
specimen of Tantilla cascadae and two of Tantilla ceboruca,
the former known only from its type locality. These
findings extend the known geographical distribution
of T. cascadae 121 km westward from Michoacán, its
type locality. Also, it extends the known geographical
distribution of T. ceboruca 41 km eastward from its type
locality and 185 km northwest from its second record in
the state of Colima. |
