Re: What do you think of this snake species
After some time poring over the books I'm really starting to think it is a Smooth Snake, Coronella austriaca. Smooth Snakes are a non-venomous colubrid found throughout most of Europe but their range seems to end in the extreme North West tip of Turkey, between the Bulgarian border and İstanbul. So if you are anywhere else in Turkey I'd have to start over lol. Your general location, such as the city the snake was found in or near in would be helpful. At any rate I learned a few things about Turkey's snakes today lol.
