Rediscovery, new island record, and clarification of the geographic distribution of oligodon perkinsi (Taylor, 1925) (squamata, colubridae), a poorly known endemic snake from the Palawan faunal region of western Philippines

Snakes of the genus Oligodon Fitzinger, 1826 are rarely observed and infrequently collected in the Philippines.
