Re: Pink Headed Reed Snake
Awesome intertidal shots from Krabi dude. I probably could spend hours poking around there looking for various marine life and hoping to chance upon a sea snake. The sleeping lizard is a Calotes versicolor , Changeable lizard. And I believe your near DOR snake from Japan is a juvenile Elaphe climaco...

Re: Cobras and Tons More Thailand Snakes!
Just to add to Kevin's post of Asian genera
Blue necked keelback - Macropisthodon rhodomelas
Olive keelback - Atretium schistosum
That puts us at 9 genera?
keelback, racer, ratsnake = ughh

Re: New Snake App for Singapore
This app is targeted at the general public to create a better understanding and tolerance of snakes. As such, we kept it simple choosing to leave out the finer details you might find in a naturalist's or herper's guide. So for such usage, the "what snake is that" bit was designed the way i...

Re: June Holidays
D. cyanochloris and D. haasi are definitely rarer in terms of occurances and distribution.
D. caudolineatus is quite widespread and relatiely common in Singapore.
That Lipinia vittigera is a pretty sweet find. Gorgeous skink.

Hans, that's close to as big as cynodon gets! Wow. The longest one I have found was 207cm. Love them!

We found this pair locked in this position some time back and I shot this with my phone.
