Though there is a lot of talk about venomous snakes in Buenaventura, I was disappointed (Debbi wasn’t) not to see any in our five weeks there. Here are some of the second-class snakes:
Shropshire’s Puffing Snake or Tigre, Psuestes shropshirei
Chonta, Chironius grandisquamatus
Tantilla melanocephala
Dendrophidion graciliverpa
Dendrophidion graciliverpa
Copper Parrot Snake, Leptophis cupreus
