Agkistrodon contortrix pictigaster

:''Common names: Trans-Pecos Copperhead.''
''Agkistrodon contortrix pictigaster'' is a venomous pitviper subspecies found in the Trans-Pecos region of the United States, in western Texas, and northeastern Mexico.
==Description==
This subspecies is typically a light tan in color, with darker brown, wide crossbands. Their actual color varies by locality, varying from a red-brown, to a gray-brown. The species can be difficult to distinguish from the Broad-banded Copperhead, ''A. c. laticinctus''. The only notable physical difference between the subspecies is that the Trans-Pecos Copperhead tends to have an elaboratedly patterned underside, often being an irregular, white and black pattern whereas the Broad-banded tends to be plain white, only have minimal patterning, or have elongated random blotching instead of a distinct pattern. The subspecies intergrade where their ranges overlap, further confusing identification. It is easily distinguished from other subspecies of copperhead, in that other species typically have banding that narrows at the spine, creating hourglass shapes, whereas ''A. c. pictigaster'' has bands that do not narrow at the spine. They grow to approximately 20-36 inches (50–90 cm)in length. As juveniles, all species of ''Agkistrodon'' have a bright green-yellow color to their tail tip believed to be used as a lure to attract prey items to approach within striking range. The color fades to a grey or brown at about a year of age.
