- Abstract
The article reports cases of coloration in Thamnophis sirtalis pallidulus or Maritime Gartersnake. It considers pigment variation in postglacial populations of Thamnophis sirtalis pallidulus as a response to climate change. Three color morphs were identified and two color variants, a unspotted and spotted morph, are described that were added to the list of color patterns documented in Thamnophis sirtalis pallidulus. A variety of color variants from coastal islands off Massachusetts are cited.
