Australia's most orange snake

[waruikazi]

Some Boiga might be up there. I suspect it would have to be an elapid or colubrid. I used to have a vivid orange Keelback, and I've seen a few of them.

Interesting snakes Thanks for indulging me I think Shane's Taipan gets my vote for the most orange of the thread's pictures so far.

I did catch a banded tree snake that was almost completely orange, it had a few small blotches of cream through its body. But i never took any pics of it.

I am quite certain that this is not Australia's most orange individual, but someone just asked me if I was trying to imply that it was, so I'll point out that no, I'm not contemplating putting this one up as a contender or anything. I'm not sure I'd describe it as 'orange' anyway; to me it's more of a reddish colour, and I have others which I'd say are probably more orange. It is a beautiful snake I'm very fond of though.

The most orange snake I have ever witnessed was on a Western Brown near Elliott in the NT. The head was jet black, and every scale on the body was the most amazing fluro orange colour I have ever seen. Each orange scale was bordered with black trim.

Till this day I have never seen its equal on any elapid in Australia. Unfortunately, Marshall Black's camera had run out of power so a pic was impossible at the time. I never knew any Brown Snake could be that colourful.

Picky picky! Anyway, I didn't post that picture to talk about it, just to point out that it's not what I had in mind when I started the thread. I'm curious about orange snakes, not a sort of orangish reddish Adder Shane's Adders look more orange than mine.

Anyone else have a vivid orange snake to show?
