Ecuador trip

Hey everyone. just thought you might enjoy these pictures. Ive been living in ecuador for 6 months now and have found some excellent snakes. heres some pics to start, more to come.

The first is an un-ID'd Atractus sp. photos have been sent off to Walter Schargel in hopes that he can ID it.
The second two are both Oxyrhopus sp. The Banded Calico and Black Headed Calico respectively. enjoy

The Atractus in question is an Atractus major. all of the Atractus sps continue to amaze me with their variability
