Taxonomy:
No subspecies are recognized for
Opheodrys aestivus (Crother 2008).
Distribution: The Rough Greensnake
should probably be considered statewide in Tennessee.
However, records are lacking for much of the Cumberland Plateau and upper
northeastern Tennessee. The
distribution map provided by Conant and Collins (1998) depicts the species as
absent in upper northeastern Tennessee.
