A dead specimen found squashed in the Augrabies rest camp parking lot. Was not able to ID it as it looked quite different to all the Psammophis which are known to occur in the area? |

P. trigrammus appears the best fit and would be a easterly range extension. |

I agree that this is a P. trigrammus, and it's a good easterly range extension. |
