A
small male
White-lipped Pit Viper with yellow eyes,
spotted on the side of a rubber trash bin near a waterfall in Suan Hin Pha Ngam
limestone garden, in
Loei
province.
When it moved, the thin white ventrolateral stripe, that
runs along its body, became clearly visible. This particular species has rather
large eyes, making it confusingly similar to the
Big-eyed Pit Viper
(fig.).
