Eyes on top of the head rather than on the side. _________________ YSBRYDOLI POBL, GWELLA LLEOEDD

Ooooh okay, well it doesn't look like B. schneideri or xeropaga either due to lack of notable large head scales and the head structure doesn't resemble Cerastes, Pseudocerastes and the colours/patterns on the head aren't as defined as in Echis...and I dont think it would be Macrovipera deserti... This is annoying.... _________________ Regards James Stroud |
