Hutton's pit viper is a venomous snake that is very rare and little known. It belongs to the pit viper group and was first described in 1949 from just two young snakes. It is found only in the southern Western Ghats mountains of India, which makes it special to science.1

Co renconuscher el

Young snakes are green on the back.1
There is a series of small white spots on both sides of the body.1
A distinct red eye streak runs on both sides of the head.1
The underside is pale green, except the last 25 subcaudal scales (the scales under the tail), which are dull reddish brown.1
The colour and size of adult snakes are unknown.1

Savens confundì cun: A possible third specimen from the northern Western Ghats shares several features with the T. wagleri complex, so its identity is doubtful.1
