The location described (as best I can understand it) would put my house inside its range as I live a stones throw from the DMZ. I have never discovered E. davidi either where I live OR in any of my travels. I did a tv program on Korean snakes with Dr. Sim. This species was never discussed and to my knowledge is not covered in his book (I am not for sure as I do not have a copy readily handy right now).

I looked at the link John provided and the pictured snake resembled more of a Gloydius species to me (especially the head and keeled scales). I kind of chuckled because the first thing I thought when I saw the pic was G. saxitilis / E. dione hybrid (of course that is just based on the pictures appearance and I am not insinuating or implying anything here).

I will try to research it a bit more here locally and see if I can locate one through my contacts with local mania.
