The Papuan black snake is a large, highly venomous snake that lives in southern New Guinea and nearby islands. It is mostly black with blue-grey underparts. Its venom attacks the nerves, so a bite needs urgent medical care.1

Its venom is the most potent of all black snakes in the genus Pseudechis. Unlike other black snakes, it is mainly neurotoxic, meaning it attacks the nerves. Muscle weakness and paralysis can develop within 2 to 21 hours of a bite, and this can be life-threatening.1

It is widely feared in Papua New Guinea's Central Province, but it causes only a small minority of snakebites there. The more dangerous taipan causes far more.1

Si nde ŋatii

  • Get to a hospital quickly, because delaying treatment can be dangerous. The venom can be treated with CSL black snake antivenom, and intubation (a breathing tube) may be needed if breathing is affected.1

Anndal

1

The Mekeo people call it auguma, meaning "to bite again", because it often bites repeatedly.1

2

The Kiwai people believe it is sent by a magic-man to kill enemies, and bitten people sometimes seek a magic-man instead of going to hospital.1

3

Some local people in New Guinea believe it and the taipan are opposite sexes of the same species.1

4

The first documented survivor of a bite was a young man treated in New Guinea in 1959, using antivenom made from its venom.1

5

Its venom was first extracted for science by Australian herpetologist Ken Slater in the mid-1950s, and sent to Melbourne for antivenom research.1

6

Its range has shrunk because of habitat destruction, killing by locals and poisoning by the introduced cane toad.1

Fenaande: It is the most dangerous snake in Papua New Guinea's Central Province.

Goonga: It causes only a small minority of snakebites there, which the more dangerous taipan outnumbers.1
