The SNAKE of the SEA CARCASS

The snake of the sea carcass was a kind of dangerous venomous snake. Had the Trimeresurus scientific name albolabris, this snake was also known by the name of other like oray bungka, oray majapait, ula stiff-sea or ula gadung luwuk (Jw.), tarihu (Dompu), et cetera. In English was mentioned by the name of white-lipped tree viper, white-lipped pit-viper or bamboo pit-viper. This snake also was named the green snake because of the colour of his body. However this naming could lead astray, because of enough coloured kinds of the tree snake green, as in the case of the sprout snake (Ahaetulla spp.) and the squirrel snake (Gonyosoma oxycephalum) that was not dangerous. The snake that was the size, rather fat short and was not so agile.
