Records. Table 2.

Yellow Anacondas are smaller than E. murinus and were more commonly found in the study area (n = 83). They had yellowish-green scales with dark bands and spots that overlapped and wrapped around the entire body ( Fig. 7). The measurements (TL = 190.2 cm ± 59.0; n = 52) indicated a population of young individuals, that were smaller than typical adults (3–4 m long) ( Norman and Naylor 1994). We collected 1 specimen (ZUFMS- REP02725), and used other specimens for identifications (e.g. ZUFMS-REP01137, REP01387).
