摘要

我们对一种蛇标本进行了遗传和形态学调查，最初被确定为来自Elapidae科的有毒物种Walterinnesia morgani (Mocquard, 1905)，主要基于它的深色。然而，随后的遗传分析显示了与Colubridae科的明确联系，特别是Hemorrhois nummifer (Reuss, 1834)，它与前面提到的物种在伊拉克有部分同地分布。这一发现是伊拉克第一次有文献记录的这种彩色标本，提出了关于可能的模仿和物种识别混淆的可能性的其他问题。

Re-evaluating first impressions: Melanism in Hemorrhois nummifer (Reuss, 1834) from Kurdistan Region, Iraq

We conducted genetic and morphological investigations on a snake specimen initially identified as the venomous species Walterinnesia morgani (Mocquard, 1905) from the family Elapidae, primarily based on its dark colouration. However, subsequent genetic analysis revealed a clear affiliation with the family Colubridae, specifically Hemorrhois nummifer (Reuss, 1834), which shares a partially sympatric distribution with the previously mentioned species in Iraq. This discovery represents the first documented record of such a coloured specimen of H. nummifer in Iraq, raising additional questions regarding possible mimicry and the possibility of confusion in species identifications.

期刊介绍： Zoology in the Middle East is a journal which publishes original papers and review papers on ecology, zoogeography, animal biology, biodiversity, faunistics, systematics and morphology of the Middle East. It seeks to further the understanding of the Middle East as a zoogeographic unit and aims at improving the interchange of knowledge and ideas between specialists on different subjects and taxa.
