The rostral is 1.5 to 3.0 times as broad as it is long; the suture between the internasals is nearly as long as that between the prefrontals; the frontal is much longer than its distance from the end of the snout, as long as the parietals; the lorealae are as long as deep or a little longer, It has one preocular, two or three postoculars, and one or two suboculars; the temporals number 2+2 or 2+3.

Theodore Edward (Theodor Edvard) Cantor (1809–1860) was a Danish physician, zoologist and botanist. Born to a Danish Jewish family, his mother was a sister of Nathaniel Wallich. Cantor worked for the British East India Company, and made natural history collections in Penang and Malacca. Cantor was the first Western scientist to describe the Siamese fighting fish. In the scientific field of herpetology he described many new species of reptiles and amphibians. Species first described by Cantor include '' Bungarus bungaroides'' (1839), ''Bungarus lividus'' (1839), ''Channa argus'' (1842), '' Elaphe rufodorsata'' (1842), ''Euprepiophis mandarinus'' (1842), '' Hippocampus comes'' (1850), '' Lycodon effraenis'' (1847), ''Misgurnus anguillicaudatus'' (1842), ''Naja atra'' (1842), ''Oligodon albocinctus'' (1839), '' Oligodon cyclurus'' (1839), '' Ophiophagus hannah'' (1836), '' Oreocryptophis porphyracea'' (1839), ''Pareas monticola'' (1839), ''Protobothrops mucrosquamatus'' (1839), ''P ...

Painted Keelback
Paint is any pigmented liquid, liquefiable, or solid mastic composition that, after application to a substrate in a thin layer, converts to a solid film. It is most commonly used to protect, color, or provide texture. Paint can be made in many colors—and in many different types. Paint is typically stored, sold, and applied as a liquid, but most types dry into a solid. Most paints are either oil-based or water-based and each has distinct characteristics. For one, it is illegal in most municipalities to discard oil-based paint down household drains or sewers. Clean-up solvents are also different for water-based paint than they are for oil-based paint. Water-based paints and oil-based paints will cure differently based on the outside ambient temperature of the object being painted (such as a house.) Usually, the object being painted must be over , although some manufacturers of external paints/primers claim they can be applied when temperatures are as low as . History Paint was ...
