The species was originally described by Alfredo Dugès in 1897, and is endemic to Mexico.[1][3] It is the type species of the genus Adelophis Dugès, 1879.[3] EtymologyThe generic name, Adelophis, is from the Greek words adēlos meaning "uncertain" or "obscure" and ophis meaning "snake", together referring to Dugès' uncertainty of the taxonomic placement of the genus.[4] The specific name, copei, is in honor of American herpetologist and paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope.[3][5] DescriptionAdelophis copei is a small and moderately slender snake that has a maximum total length (including tail) of {{convert|392|mm|abbr=on}}. The tail is about one fifth of the total length.[4]Habitat and geographic rangeAdelophis copei lives in the wetlands of west-central Mexico, in such areas in the Mexican states of Jalisco, Michoacán, Guanajuato, Hidalgo, and northern Morelos.[1]Conservation statusAdelophis copei is threatened by habitat loss due to agriculture and human settlement. Mexico has placed national laws protecting the species, and the species is being researched for more ways to protect it. It is protected in the Sierra Los Huicholes reserve.[1]References1. ^1 2 3 {{Cite journal|vauthors=Ponce-Campos P, García Aguayo A|title=Adelophis copei |journal=The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species|volume=2007|page=e.T63727A12711203|date=2007|url=http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/63727/0|doi=10.2305/IUCN.UK.2007.RLTS.T63727A12711203.en|access-date=27 December 2017}} 2. ^Boulenger GA (1893).
