Aspidites - Major New Discovery
I have just been talking to Dave Mackintosh from Pilbara Pythons.
Dave and Adrien Hogg have for quite some time considered aspidites to have 1 or more heat sensing pits.
Dave confirmed a banana shaped heat sensor is located underneath the rostral scale in aspidites.
Reasearch is continuing.
This is a major breakthrough for this species thought to be the only australian pythons not to have heat sensor pits.
