Talk:Copperhead

Copperhead snake
I see that the Australian fauna page already has a link to copperhead snake. Does anyone know the relationship between that and the American copperhead? Come on, I know some of our best biota people are Australians.... -- John Owens 19:53 5 Jun 2003 (UTC)

So far so good on the American copperhead, John. Now for the Australian varieties. Tannin

Kill Bill reference
Is the Kill Bill reference really necessary? I'm sure there are dozens of other characters (and real people, for that matter) that have used such an alias.

JLA: Unlimited character
Added Copperhead, that popular character from the series JLA: Unlimited.

Ginger-haired person
-- "ginger-haired person". This expression is not used in the United States and I'm unable to find a good definition online. It seems to mean "a red-haired person". Can anyone clarify? (29 Sept 2005)

Cottonmouth?
Why is the cottonmouth listed here? I've never heard anyone refer to it as anything but "cottonmouth" or "water moccasin." It is closely related to a copperhead but they're two different snakes.


 * Because "copperhead" is listed as one of the many common names used to refer to Agkistrodon p. piscivorus in Wright & Wright (1957). Perhaps that's because piscivorus looks a lot like contortrix in its juvenile color phase. According to the same book, both species have also been referred to as "highland moccasin", "moccasin" and "viper". Common names are... not very accurate. --Jwinius 01:28, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
