Chrysopelea rhodopleuron Boie, 1827

This snake was listed as present on Kei Kecil by de Lang (2013) based on a misidentification from our group along with an examination of a slide photo from an earlier expedition. We have since concluded that this species is not present on Kur and the photo represented an individual of Dendrelaphis keiensis .
