False Water Cobra (Hydrodynastes gigas) May 20, 2021

This episode talks about Hydrodynastes gigas, The False Water Cobra. The False water cobra is a rear-fanged venomous colubrid snake native to South America. The background color of a mature snake is olive green or brown, with dark spots and bands covering much of its body. The background coloring and banding generally become darker towards the end tail. This coloring gives the False water cobra effective camouflage in its natural rainforest environment. The ventral scales are yellow or brown, spotted with dark flecks that make three dotted lines that appear to merge towards the tail.

100 Flower Rat Snake (Elaphe moellendorffi) Oct 18, 2020

This week we explore a Colubrid species coveted by enthusiasts with a taste for the unique and large species of Rat Snakes, the 100 Flower Rat Snake (Elaphe moellendorffi). From the redhead contrasted upon a typically green body dotted with flower reminiscent patches of pattern, this long and unique species of Rat Snake is considered to be among the elite lesser-known Colubrids. Reaching lengths of up to 8 feet, this snake is listed by the IUCN Red List as “VULNERABLE” with some downward trends in population. However, they do exist in the hobby and captive propagation does occur. This diurnal, large, and active snakes deserve the envy they induce in those fortunate enough to discover them and hopefully, this episode inspires the listener in the same way.

Rainbow Tree Snake (Gonyosoma margaritatum) Episode#1 Oct 01, 2020

Rainbow Tree Snake (Gonyosoma margaritatum)

Our first dive into the colorful world of Colubrids begins with arguably one of the most colorful, yet unheard of species of snake, the Rainbow Tree Snake (Gonyosoma margaritatum). This beautiful species of arboreal nocturnal snake is similar to Rhino Rat Snakes (Rhynchophis boulengeri) and many of the more common Gonyosoma in the hobby today. However, these jewels, despite being listed by the IUCN Red List as “LEAST CONCERN,” will not be found at your local reptile conventions as very little is known or documented about this species. Cloaked in an array of colors, this elusive species of Colubrid is sure to intrigue anyone to hear of its fitting name and see photographs of the few individuals to have been photographed.
