vermicella vermiformis

Hi, so there is a good chance I will be doing a massive road trip next year up through SA (going through coober pedy) and into the NT so Alice springs, Simpson desert, Ayers rock and right up to the top for some barra fishing (and hopefully some croc spotting). I was just hoping for some...

I think these beauties certainly need their own dedicated thread for everyone to centrally drool over :P So show us those beauties!

just a couple of photo's from 2014, a bit of a disappointment of a season due to the lack of Hoplocephalus, but oh well enjoy anyway

Hi, I am heading up to Gympie for christmas and was wondering would any one like to show me around a few herp spots while I am there. I will be staying down Sandy creek. I should have access to a car which can make getting around a bit eazier. Thanks in advance.

Myself and my partner have been on a few herping trips lately and I thought id put up a few of the highlights. I'll start with the local stuff. I've just done a couple of pretty dismal nights herping around Brisbane so far. As there isn't too much to find I've been able to experiment with...

An eastern brown I moved on from work last week, there's a lot of rats around the port. Not the biggest I've seen but had a lot of girth to it. The brown was hiding in the water main box, glad I look first before sticking my hands in there. Not the best picture, it wasn't very cooperative lol...

hi all I live in Yarrawonga Victoria and I was wondering what type of snakes live around my area. I know that there are eastern browns, red belly blacks and tigersnakes but is there any other snakes? any pythons? or any other elapids? cheers

G'day all. I'm currently writing a small book called 'A Guide To Snakes Of The NSW Mid North Coast'. The book is now in the design stage getting backgrounds and cover sorted and photos to accompany species information. Currently I'm short a few images for certain species and some species pics I...

Not 100% sure what this is, my first thought was some sort of blind snake?

What type of aussie pythons are your favourite

Hello All, Once again I have been tasked with something I am completely unfamiliar with in terms of captive care. I will be shortly required to attempt to look after an injured bandy bandy and would love if anyone can help with a few things please only answer if you are competent. I...

Just a few recent shots from 2013 before 2014 starts. Early this year I went to the mallee with Nick (richoman on this site), matt(python_owner) and a few other guys who aren't on this site (steve and dan). Bandy Bandy(Vermicella annulata) by Melbourne herping, on Flickr Dark-Spined Blind...

Well Matt beat me to the APS post on this... but last is always better. After a riveting day of school Matt and I wasted no time (Maccas is not wasting time!) getting to Little Desert NP On arriving there we set up our camp, and the tempting calls of banjo frogs nearby lured us to their pond...

Hey all, headed up to the Mallee over Cup weekend with a few mates to see what we could find. We started off at Little Desert, then moved up through Big Desert, and across to Hattah - Kulkyne National Park. Here is some of what we found. Enjoy the photos! Banjo Frog (Lymnodynastes dumerilii)...

So I just got sent this photo from what I believe is an ***** mate... The caption was "check out what I just found"... I have no clue what it is but to me that looks poisonous... Any ideas?

I was just reading another thread which got me thinking about how many species of snakes I've spotted in my yard. On an acreage block in SEQ, I have seen a couple of RBBs pass through. There was a communal nest of yellow-faced whip snakes under the thicket adjacent to the house. I once removed...

Hi all, a friend of mine sent me a photo of a snake that was caught in his fish pond. He lives in the windsor area of Sydney. Could it be a Bandi Bandi ? I am trying to load images from my phone but is not very successful. The animal in question is black and white striped. Very clean white and...

Hey guys, sorry about the lowsy photos, the snake was sent to me via phone from someone else and I was drunk when I took the one of the frog. Anyway the frog was found in Townsville, and the snake found North shore Sydney, Hornsby to be precise. Thanks

Went for a bit of a drive yesterday evening ..... past the area of a recent large bushfire event and along the massive development (devastation) of a bush road leading into CSG territory. Usually I encounter nothing but tonight I was lucky, maybe due to the heat and rain around at the moment...

Hi All, just thought I would post a few pics of a little critter that I rescued late last night. This little tacker was found under the dining table while food was being eaten. What I would like to know is how would these guys actually be able to eat Blind snakes at this tiny size? Cheers.

This little guy was handed in to me. Its back was broken and was passed on to Australia Zoo who almost certainly euthanized it. It appears that the injury was non-accidental :evil:

My brother in law continued to boast that he used his oh so manly powers and killed a 'snake' becuase it was 'hissing at his dog'. He wonders why I shot him down? Jack **** Apparently his colleague said it was a Bandy Bandy.... and he later confirmed it on a google image. But I have to...

I found this on the footpath this morning in the middle of sydney. Was under powerlines so i dont know if a bird had it and dropped it or where it came from. What the hell is it? Some sort of corn snake?

Went out into the bush decmorning, it was quit very sunny and warm. I had my camra first aid etc..... but no matter how hard i looked in the perfect conditions to find any basking snakes. I didnt find one.?

As the title says guys, what is your favourite reptile, and why is it your favourite? Also how did you guys get into keeping reptiles? I've always been fascinated with anything out of the ordinary, I love sharks and crocodiles, and I've always been fascinated with snakes. My GF suggested we...

Hey hey. Today I took a few of my snakes who were due for defecation out to the yard and let them do their business and one of them did something very odd.
