Posted by: psilocybe at Tue Jun 8 10:12:25 2010 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by psilocybe ] According to Fry et al., B. dendrophila has an extremely neurotoxic venom on par with Acanthophis. However, owing to the extremely poor delivery system, bites from this species have not been documented as life-threatening, though I've seen impressive bite pictures, which I can provide links to upon request. One bite I've seen in particular involving a 4 ft. individual (of which locality I cannot recall) resulted in impressive tissue damage, owing to the metalloprotease activity of the venom.
