Of these 19 species, 16 (84.2%) are non-endemics, two are introduced species, and one is a peninsular endemic. Of the 16 non-endemic species, all but one are distributed to the north in the United States; and the single exception is the garter snake Thamnophis marcianus , which occurs from the United States through Mexico, and into Central America (http://mesoamericanherpetology.com; accessed 5 June 2022).
