Record. Table 2

The Bush Snake individual was identified by its size (TL = 42.5 cm; tail length = 23.5% of TL), cylindrical, narrow body, scale count (2 or 3 temporal, 8 supralabial, and 9 infralabial scales, with 19 rows of dorsal scales, which are imbricated and keeled in the midbody), and color pattern. This species had sepia-bronze dorsal color with black and white spots and sepia tone lines in longitudinal dorsal rows, with a yellowish dorsal line. The belly was yellowish with a dark mesh-like pattern. There was a dark stripe on the head from the eye to the corner of the mouth ( Fig. 9), as verified by other specimens (e.g. ZUFMS-REP01000, REP01018 and REP02477).
