Notes

Found with Richard Hoyer and Todd Battey.

As part of Richard Hoyer's ongoing Rubber Boa Study..

Found by all three of us under one piece of artificial cover..
Mr. Hoyer took scale counts and measurements of all 4.

All 4 were released at exact point of capture.

2 of them were repeats for him, and 2 were new finds..

According to DNA these are Northern Boas (Bottae)(Dwarf form)

Specific Info can be obtained from Richard Hoyer, infact any and all
work done with Rubber Boas should have Mr. Hoyers study findings included or at least referenced.
