''Python curtus'' is a species of the family Pythonidae, a nonvenomous snake found in Southeast Asia. Three subspecies are recognized, including the nominate subspecies described here, although some authors describe these as species. ==Description==
Adults grow to in length and are heavily built. The tail is extremely short relative to the overall length. The color pattern consists of a beige, tan, or grayish-brown ground color overlaid with blotches that are brick- to blood-red in color.〔 The three species of short-tailed pythons can be distinguished by small differences in head scalation. In blood pythons (''P. brongersmai''), the labial scales fill in the entire gap between the bottom of the eye and the lip - in Borneo short-tailed pythons (''P. curtis'') and Sumatran short-tailed pythons (''P. breitensteini''), narrow subocular scales occur between the bottom of the eye and the top of the labial scales. ''P. curtis'' and ''P. breitensteini'' can be distinguished from each other by the frontal and parietal scales on the tops of their heads. In ''P. curtis'', the parietal scales do not join each other, or meet at an extremely sharp angle. In both ''P. brongersmai'' and ''P. breitensteini'', the parietal scales join together.
