It is famous for its ability to glide from tree to tree, which it does by launching itself into the air and steering with its body. It is mildly venomous, but it is not considered dangerous to people.1

  • Usually green, with black cross-hatching and yellow or gold accents1
  • Slender body with a flattened head, a blunt nose and large eyes with round pupils1
  • In Sri Lanka and southern India it is mainly greenish yellow or pale green, often with reddish or orange flower-shaped spots on its back1
  • In Southeast Asia it lacks the reddish spots and has less prominent black crossbars1
  • Nervous and fast-moving, it climbs trees and vertical rock faces in graceful curves1
