几种蛇聚集在先前由同种蛇标记的区域。然而，此类化学信号的物种差异和来源却很少受到关注。来自成年平原束带蛇脱落表皮的二氯甲烷可溶性物质吸引了新生同种蛇，而来自同类和蝰蛇的类似提取物却没有。这种同种聚集的功能意义可能与冬眠区、觅食区、渗透压调节或捕食避免的位置有关。
Several species of snakes aggregate in areas previously marked by conspecifics. However, species differences and sources of such chemical signals have received little attention. Methylene chloride-soluble substances from shed epidermis of adult plains garter snakes attracted neonate conspecifics, whereas similar extracts from a congener and a viperid did not. The functional significance of such conspecific aggregation may relate to location of hibernacula, foraging areas, osmoregulation, or predation avoidance.
