It is a lot easier to list them all by their latin name too.
And the coolest and one of the rarest in captivity is Python oenpelliensis or the Oenpelli Python. And I don't think I saw Python anchietae or Angolan Python either. Or Morelia clastolepis Moluccan Python, Morelia nauta Tanimbar Python, Morelia tracyae Halmahera Python. Then there's Morelia imbricatus or Southwestern Python as stated by Jezabel, and Python carinatus or Rough Scaled Python. Later,
Josh
