Basically a hybrid is anything that comes from parents with differant genes, virtually every reptile(to some extent) except clones... an intraspecific hybrid is a cross of sub species and an interspecific hybrid is between differant species, not sure what crossing with a differant genus is called though.

Saying a reptile comes from a locality means it simply came from a ceratin area, nothing to do with taxonomy. Reptiles from differant areas will generally have greater genetic variation than those in the same area, therefore crossing them will make unatural hybrids.
