Pseudechis porphyriacus

Yes!! Isn't she the most amazing snake you've ever seen??

 

[HerpsOfNM]

regular specimens are gorgeous to begin with, but albinism really cleaned that snake up.

The head was bugging me, thinking it was some sort of coachwhip or racer. But the Oz hints got me thinking, I started looking at head scalation and then remembered an Aussie internet friend's photos from years ago. Too bad it's like a coachwhip with fangs and somewhat potent venom.

 

[iculatr]

both are stunning

 

[hikisquid]

Wow it is gorgeous!

 

[Nanci]

AND, there was a really nice Australian Shiraz named after it!
