Peters' coral snake is a venomous snake that lives in the cloud forests of eastern Ecuador. It is found only in one province, Morona-Santiago, high on the eastern slope of the Andes mountains. It is a medium-sized snake for its group, and its colour pattern and light blue snout set it apart from most other New World coral snakes.1
