Katrinus fuscus jackyae (Hoser, 2004) [nomen dubium, synonym of Liasis fuscus]

Holotype:

WAM R13882.

Type locality:

Kalumburu, Western Australia.

Remarks:

Hoser (2004) claimed that several diagnostic features separated this taxon from others, but discusses only one (APP2); he stated that "in Katrinus fuscus fuscus (from coastal Queensland) the upper lips are pale with a little brown peppering. However, in Katrinus fuscus jackyae (from the NT and WA) the lips are usually darker with more dark brown peppering or even blotches" (Hoser 2004). He continued that this subspecies would intergrade with Katrinus fuscus cornwallisius around the Gulf of Carpentaria. The name is herein considered a nomen dubium (APP5).
