Psammophis subtaeniatus Peters, 1882 View in CoL

Yellow-bellied Sand Snake

Material: PEM R20506 (44a).

Comment : Recorded by Bocage (1896) and Monard (1937b). Broadley (2002) mapped the known Angola material which clusters in the south-west, as far north as Benguela. The current specimen, the first from the Cuito drainage, fills the large gap between populations in Caprivi region of Namibia and Zimbabwe.
