Xenodon matogrossensis (Scrocchi & Cruz, 1993)

Records. Table 2.

The Ringed Hognose Snake was identified by its dorsoventrally flattened body, upturned snout, 21 rows of dorsal scales at midbody, rounded tip of the tail, and color pattern. Its coral-like colors were alternated by incomplete dorsal rings, which end on the white belly. Ring colors sequence were red, black, white and black, repetitively from head to tail ( Fig. 10). We used collection specimens for identifications (e.g. ZUFMS-REP00108, REP01463, REP01523, REP01620, REP01700, REP01987, REP02001, REP02145).
