I'm interested in any species of Australian snake that may feed on invertebrates, it is for a small art project! :D Preferably if it is fairly common within that species... but species that may do so on occasion are fine! Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, As my herp addiction continues, I have realised I want to learn how to deal with venomous snakes, so I was wondering: -What was the first snake you caught, and how/why? -What tips / experience do you have to share with beginners who want to deal with vens? My personal experience...

Just a few of my latest photos from the field Bardick - easily my favourite snake! Bardick (Echiopsis curta) by Nick Volpe, on Flickr Bardick (Echiopsis curta) by Nick Volpe, on Flickr Bardick (Echiopsis curta) by Nick Volpe, on Flickr Burtons Burton's Legless Lizard (Lialis burtonis)...

I have pulled this from my blog. I couldn't be bothered re formatting all of the scientific names into italics again so I deleted them. Check out the original blog for those details: http://whawha88.wordpress.com/ Enjoy. In September 2012 I went on a field trip to South Australia to help my...

Went to both Little Desert (one day) and big desert (nearly 3 days) with richoman and others to do some herping for a few days. Was quite successful and saw about 25 species (nearly 50% out of the true mallee penetrating sp). Of these i photograph few some i didnt bother photographing and others...

Myself and a few mates spent a few days in the Mallee over the cup weekend, here are a couple of pics of what we saw. Lots of pics. Im not sure what the cricket or spider are so any info would be good. The cricket was massive and had a really nasty set of mandibles on it, and the spider was...

Hey, I’m Darren and have just recently joined APS… thought I should introduce myself I’ve been interested in Reptiles and Frogs since about the age of 4 after catching skinks and geckos in the backyard and this interest has progressed from there and become a lifetime hobby that I’ll never get...

went for a bush walk with the DLSR near my house and found a few lizards and i would love to know what types they are:)

I have had Viper boas before They were interesting Is the only Australian snake that looks like a Viper, a death adder? Cheers L

I found it interesting in what type of anti vens are used for different species .... Immunotype Treatment of snakebite in a clinical setting depends in part on the immunotype to which the speces belongs. The Snake Venom Detection Kit (SVDK) helps with determining this information...

A guy on another forum made these disparaging remarks about our elapids. His comment was: I decided to reply and thought that some of you would enjoy these pics as well. I am sure that you will agree that we have plenty of brilliantly coloured snakes that are various shades of olive...

The older Victorian herpers will all be familiar with this snake, many of them have searched for years to find one, some successfully, some not. Strangely, many of the younger herpers these days don't even know what a Bardick is. They're extremely interesting snakes. They don't look like much...

Hi all! I am from the Netherlands, and I have a big interest in Aussie Elapids. But for me it is pretty difficult to find some good info on some of your species. So I hoped that people over here can tell me something of the next animals in captive and wild conditions... Cacophis harriettae...

I was browsing through a book on aussie snakes today & noticing all the amazing elapids we have & it made me wonder why I don't see more of them on here , why is it always the same 4 or 5 elapids that seem to be kept ?
