Highly venomous, it is an arboreal but heavily built species with a brown or tawny coloration. No subspecies are currently recognized.〔 ==Description== Adults grow to more than in length and are heavily built. The maximum length is unknown. Scalation includes 19 rows of dorsal scales at midbody, 159 ventral scales, 42 subcaudal scales and 10 supralabial scales, the third being the largest.〔 The color pattern varies from brown with faint patterning to tawny with dull brown blotches and spots along with a ventrolateral stripe.〔 This species, especially the population in the south, which was formerly referred to as ''T. venustus'' and recently shown to be a separate species, has often been confused with the mangrove pit viper, ''T. purpureomaculatus''.〔 However, the two are easily distinguished by the first three supralabial scales, which are much enlarged in ''T. kanburiensis''.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trimeresurus kanburiensis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
