The existence of this new boa provides greater resolution of the historical biogeography of the West Indian boas in the Bahamas Archipelago, further supporting multiple colonization of this region from Hispaniola as well as speciation and divergence events dating to the late Pliocene/early Pleistocene.

The terrestrial squamate herpetofauna on the Cay Sal Bank are a product of dispersal from both the Great Bahamas Bank to the east and western Cuba to the south, and it is found that both Anolis and Tropidophis species are recently derived from, and likely conspecific with, west Cuban ancestors.

The discovery of this new species from Hispaniola is especially important as it appears to be among the smallest boid (Boidae) species, has an arboreal specialization, and is found in a very restricted and highly threatened habitat.

A phylogenetic analysis of these boas is conducted, finding that the Crooked-Acklins Boa is a distinct species sister to the recently described Silver Boa (C. argentum), and is not closely related to C. chrysogaster populations.

The findings suggest that, in addition to being an invalid taxon, ‘Pseudoepicrates’ cannot be referred to B. constrictor, and the extant Chilabothrus is here regarded as the most cogent generic assignment, with ChilABothrus stanolseni comb.

The sizes and ages at which both sexes reach sexual maturity in nature are documented, and it is shown that the Cuban Boa reaches adulthood at a much smaller size than previously reported for captive snakes.

A continuum of color-by-pattern morphs within each pattern class (striped/spotted) in this subspecies is described which represents a much broader range of color and pattern variation in this species than has been previously recognized.
