Chilabothrus striatus, known commonly as the Hispaniolan boa, is a species of snake in the family Boidae.[2] The species is endemic to the West Indies.

Distribution and habitat

Chilabothrus striatus is found in The Bahamas, the Bimini Islands, and on Hispaniola.

Subspecies

Three subspecies are recognized including the nominotypical subspecies.[3]

  • Chilabothrus striatus striatus {{small|(J.G. Fischer, 1856)}} – Hispaniolan or Dominican red mountain boa
  • Chilabothrus striatus exagistus {{small|Sheplan & Schwartz, 1974}} – Tiburon Peninsula boa
  • Chilabothrus striatus warreni {{small|Sheplan & Schwartz, 1974}} – Tortuga boa

Nota bene: A trinomial authority in parentheses indicates that the subspecies was originally described in a genus other than Chilabothrus.

Etymology

The subspecific name, warreni, is in honor of C. Rhea Warren who collected herpetological specimens on Île de la Tortue.[4]
