Red-bellied black snake
The red-bellied black snake (''Pseudechis porphyriacus'') is a species of elapid snake native to eastern Australia. Though its venom is capable of causing significant morbidity, a bite from it is not generally fatal and is less venomous than other deadly Australian snakes. It is common in woodlands, forests and swamplands of eastern Australia. It is one of Australia's best-known snakes, as it is common in urban areas along the eastern coast of Australia. It has an average total length of 1.5 to 2 metres.
==Taxonomy==
The species was first described by George Shaw in ''Zoology of New Holland'' (1794), placing it in the genus ''Coluber''. He believed the snake to be harmless to people. The accompanying illustration was attributed to James Sowerby, but is regarded as being produced from drawings by John White.〔(Picture Library ) State Library of Victoria〕 The genus ''Pseudechis'' was created for it, though several subsequent species have been added. Snake expert Eric Worrell analyzed the skulls of the genus and found that of the red-bellied black snake to be the most divergent.
