Talk:Smooth green snake

message: Can anyone confirm that :Image:Green, yellow snake.jpg is of a Smooth Green Snake? -- Solipsist 20:09, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Its a nice close up of the head. I am not sure of the identification and I am no expert. Googling for images of "smooth green snake" gives a few with very similar eyes and shape of head but a range of coloring. Candian Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Network has the closest I have found. But the Rough Green Snake  Opheodrys aestivu shown at http://herpcenter.ipfw.edu/index.htm?http://herpcenter.ipfw.edu/gallery/snakes/&2  looks very similar to the head of the unidentified snake, perhaps more similar. Note the comment that the keeling on the scales is a way to tell the two apart.  The same source says of the smooth green snake "The belly is ivory and the throat is pale white", and that agrees with our unidentified snake. The source for the photo says that it is in a reptile house, so could be from anywhere.We need an expert! Billlion 21:39, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)

message: It looks like this snake is both Liochlorophis vernalis and Opheodrys vernalis. Opheodrys is more popular so I just adding a mention of Liochlorophis. -Ravedave 02:40, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: What you want to do is find out what the most authoritative taxonomy is and then see what the valid name is for the taxon according to that source. It's for this reason that WP:AAR settled on using the ITIS database as out primary source for snake taxonomy. ITIS lists Opheodrys vernalis as being the current valid name, so I imagine that Liochlorophis vernalis will be included as a synonym in Dr. McDiarmid's next checklist (Snake Species of the World, Vol. 2). --Jwinius (talk) 02:21, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Hello fellow Wikipedia editors! I have recently taken this article up as a project for my AP Biology class (as the banner above shows). I would greatly appreciate any help you are willing to give, whether it's from grammar to citation mistakes. Every correction would help me out immensely. :) Thanks. --Darby0341 (talk) 21:14, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

text: If possible, it would also be interesting to add which states the green snake is under protection in. And also any consertaion efforts, if any, should be noted somewhere on this page as well.P0PP4B34R732 (talk) 21:38, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Conservation states

message: * It is hunted by a good amount of predators. That phrases has never made sense to me; yet, I hear it all the time. How much is "good"?
* 36–51 cm... I would include both metric and English conversions.
* The largest smooth green snake was measured as being 66 cm (26 in) long... I wonder if that should be "longest".
* Just saw one on a trail in Northern Colorado (early April) which was at least 3ft long and about an inch in diameter.  So, you might want to seriously adjust the maximum length listed!!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.82.9.2 (talk) 20:24, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
