The speckled forest-pitviper is a slender, tree-living snake from the equatorial forests of South America. It is venomous, and it is known mainly from rainforests in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil and several neighbouring countries. Few people have been bitten by it, but the bites that have been recorded were serious.1

Only two bites have been documented, so little is known about how dangerous this snake is. Both bites caused severe swelling and tissue damage, and one led to amputation.1
