FIGURE 1 in Taxonomic status and morphological variation of Hydrodynastes bicinctus (Hermann, 1804) (Serpentes: Dipsadidae)

FIGURE 1. Color pattern variables observed in Hydrodynastes bicinctus. Lateral view of head, showing shape of the postocular stripe—continuous "C" shaped directed to gular region (A), and as small black postocular dot not connected to "C" shaped stripe directed to gular region (B). Lateral view of the body, showing degree of definition of lateral blotches positioned between dorsal blotches on the paraventral region—conspicuous (C), and inconspicuous (D). Ventral view of body showing color pattern—checkered pattern (E) or with a set of dots reaching the lateral portion of the body (F).
