|  | LEHOOO ZE HURRRR ^_^ Subscriber | Join Date: Feb-07 Location: herpin on the gold coast ;D Gender:  | | | if we could have a closer look at the head scales it would be easier to tell what it is. i cant seem to get past the blurr whether it has a loreal scale or not. if it does, its a colubrid. if not, most likely an elapid. hope this helps regards,
Nat

|  | Regular Member | Join Date: Apr-07 Location: Vic | | | | i'm leaning toward colubrid. What sort of habitate was it found in? Where was it found? I'm thinking slatey or keel, although I havn't had much to do with colubrid's so i'm only guessing from what i have taught myself. |
