Hi,

Yes they are very rare, this are the only one I know if in captivity.

No, we can not expect more wild caughts come in. As there is already looking for, for a long time, they are extremely rare.

My friend found them in the wild in the western part of Mt. Mangshan in Hunan province (china).

They are very similar to Oreocryptophis and Euprepiophis groups. With same behaviour and attitude.

This ssp. was never bred in captivity, as I already said they are the only one I know of in captivity.

When I breed them I will show pictures on the forums.

Best regards,
Gidi van de Belt
