The bomb of Rear Fangers: Rhinobothryum lentiginosum

The black actually looks like dark purple. Nothing like a tricolor that basks in the branches during the day.

Whats the common name for that? And whats the snake like

None of my references list a common name and just refer to it as a coral snake mimic? Its a jumpy snake that basks in the branches and is most active crawling about at night when it prowls for anoles. They are a bit defensive and will bite if confronted but I've not pressured it to do so.
