the privelige of collecting, studying, and personally bringing back 6 pairs of these pythons from Sri Lanka in the early 1980's. I was a guest of Mr. De Alwis the director of the zoo in Dehiwela. Pimbura can be colored like a Burmese or an Indian python. But ALL have a faded orange spear from the back of the neck forward and all have broken blotches not ovals like an Indian Python. They are very distinctive in appearance and behaviour to those that have seen a number of pure ones. Kelly yours outside of Sri Lanka are the nicest I've seen. I wish that more people would not intergrate or hybridize locality specific herps of all types. Tom Crutchfield
