Xenopeltidae

:''Common names: sunbeam snakes.''
The Xenopeltidae are a monotypic family of snakes created for the genus ''Xenopeltis'', which is found in Southeast Asia. Its members are known for their highly iridescent scales. Currently, two species are recognized and no subspecies. Studies of DNA suggest that the xenopeltids are most closely related to the Mexican burrowing python (''Loxocemus'') and pythons.
==Description==
Adults can grow up to in length.〔Burnie D, Wilson DE. 2001. ''Animal''. London: Dorling Kindersley. 624 pp. ISBN 0-7894-7764-5.〕 The head scales are made up of large plates much like those of the Colubridae, while the ventral scales are only slightly reduced. Pelvic vestiges are not present.
The dorsal color pattern is a reddish brown, brown, or blackish color. The belly is an unpatterned whitish-gray.〔Mehrtens JM. 1987. ''Living Snakes of the World in Color''. New York: Sterling Publishers. 480 pp. ISBN 0-8069-6460-X.〕 The scales are highly iridescent, creating a beautiful display of colors in the light.〔
