Subspecies are a regional thing, check the range maps. Also, Florida ones tend to have stripes on the snout.
I was looking at the differences online, how can you tell between the different subspecies? Would love to know for futre reference
Subspecies is A. p. conanti, Florida Cottomnouth. Nice pics btw.
