Chilabothrus striatus

Chilabothrus striatus, the Hispaniolan boa, is a species of snake in the family Boidae. The species is endemic to Hispaniola (split between Haiti and the Dominican Republic). The species is regularly found in the international pet trade.

Subspecies
Three subspecies are recognized:


 * Chilabothrus striatus exagistus Sheplan & Schwartz, 1974 – Tiburon Peninsula boa
 * Chilabothrus striatus striatus (J.G. Fischer, 1856) – Hispaniolan or Dominican red mountain boa
 * Chilabothrus striatus warreni Sheplan & Schwartz, 1974 – Tortuga Island 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.
