    Loxocemus bicolor, I assume. The genus only has one species. Unless it's a Xenopeltis unicolor. Also the only species of its genus.

    Honestly, I don't have a clue how to tell them apart.


    Edward, it's a real beauty.

    Xenopeltis unicolor is a non-venomous sunbeam snake species found in Southeast Asia. This is a primitive snake known for its highly iridescent scales. No subspecies are currently recognized.[3]
