B: roughly twin-striped pattern, with the ground color expressed as two narrow, straight, dorsolateral longitudinal lines along the body. Resembles V. kaznakovi to some degree. C: uniform brownish morph with no pattern. D: fragmented zigzag pattern (see V. s. cantabrica). Geographic rangeVipera seoanei is found in extreme southwestern France and the northern regions of Spain and Portugal. The type locality is given as "In montibus Gallaecorum et Cantabrorum...d'Espagne" (the mountains of Galicia and Cantabrici, Spain). Mertens and Müller (1928) suggested restricting the type locality to "Cabañas, Prov. Caruña, Spanien". According to Golay et al. (1993), this is Cabañas, near Ferrol, A Coruña province, northwestern Spain.[1] Conservation statusThis species is classified as Least Concern (LC) according to the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (v3.1, 2001).[8] It was given this status due to its relatively wide distribution, presumed large population, and because it is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a more threatened category. Year assessed: 2005.[9] It is, however, listed as a protected species (Appendix III) under the Berne Convention.[10] Subspecies
