Taylor's cantil
Taylor's cantil is a stout, venomous pitviper that lives only in northeastern Mexico. It is rare in the wild, and it is known to be very defensive when approached or restrained. Its name honours Edward Harrison Taylor, a herpetologist who studied the reptiles and amphibians of Mexico.1

- Two bold white or yellowish stripes run along each side of the face.1
- The body has a pattern of black and grey-brown bands, accented with white, yellow and orange.1
- Males are noticeably darker than females, and some older males become nearly black.1
- The tail ends in a small, downturned, spine-like scale.1

Koʻpincha adashtiriladi: Other members of the genus Agkistrodon differ in several ways. The cottonmouth and Conant's cantil lack the loreal scale that Taylor's cantil has, and the copperhead and broad-banded cantil lack its face stripes. Taylor's cantil also has fewer subcaudal scales than the other cantils, 45 to 56 in males and 40 to 47 in females.1

Faktlar
Only a handful of specimens were known for decades. A 1948 to 1953 field study in Tamaulipas yielded just three specimens over 14 months of fieldwork.1
It is the only species in its genus with an obvious difference in colour between males and females.1
It was first collected in 1938 crawling on a highway, and it was not formally described as a subspecies until 1951.1
Its tail is proportionately shorter than in other cantils, making up 16 to 19% of total length in males and 13 to 18% in females.1
