There are two types of Coral Snake in the United States: The eastern coral snake, or harlequin snake (M. fulvius), is about a metre (3.3 feet) long and has wide red and black rings separated by narrow rings of yellow. The Arizona coral snake (Micruroides euryxanthus) is a small (40-50-cm) inhabitant of the American Southwest. The rhyme "Red on yellow, kill a fellow, red on black, venom lack" distinguishes coral snakes from similar North American snakes. There are 50 genera of coral snake mimics such as false coral snakes (see king snake and scarlet snake), and nearly one-third of all American species have some coral snake pattern. They both prefer warmer climates and live from Florida to Texas.
