The horseshoe pit viper is a venomous snake that lives only in the Western Ghats mountains of southern India. It has a pale horseshoe-shaped mark on the back of its neck, which gives it its common name. It is special because its natural range is very small, possibly the smallest of any pit viper confirmed from India.1

Akkaataa itti beekamu

  • A pale buff, horseshoe-shaped (inverted "U") mark on the nape of the neck.1
  • Pale brownish or buff body with darker grey blotches and some white streaks.1
  • Small internasal scales on the snout.1
  • 21 rows of smooth or weakly keeled scales along the middle of the body.1

Yeroo baay'ee kan itti wal fakkeessan: It is often grouped with other pit vipers of peninsular India. It can be told apart by its small internasal scales, the second upper lip scale touching the loreal pit (the heat-sensing pit between eye and nostril), 21 rows of dorsal scales at midbody, and a single row of scales between the lip scales and the eye scales.1
