Remember those pics of M.flaviceps fangs posted last year by Francis Tan?? He mentioned something about the wriggling of the fang.I would like to know about the condition of the fangs in other Macropisthodon sp.Especially M.plumbicolor,because I found some line drawings of this snake's fangs in a book and it seems almost parallel to the maxilla.In that position it should be almost useless.I wonder whether it can rotate the maxilla.Any comments???
Thanks.
