Fea's viper is a venomous snake that lives in the mountains of Southeast Asia. It is special because scientists once thought it was one of the most primitive vipers, but later studies showed it is more closely related to the pit vipers. It can also be found on roadsides, in rice fields and around homes.1

It lives in mountain areas up to 1000 m, where it prefers cooler climates. It is sometimes found on roadsides, in straw and grass, in rice fields, and in and around homes. In Vietnam it favours forests of bamboo and tree ferns, with rotting leaf litter, rock outcrops and streams.1

It apparently feeds on small mammals, such as shrews and newborn mice. In captivity it fed only at night, and prey was often not released after being struck.1

Its venom is remarkably similar to that of Wagler's viper. Its venom does not cause blood clotting, bleeding or muscle breakdown, according to the studies described. One toxin, azemiopsin, blocks nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in muscles, which interferes with signals that tell muscles to move.1

When disturbed, it flattens its body to look wider, flares its jaws so the head looks triangular, sometimes vibrates its tail, and then may strike.1

Dintlha

1

Its fangs are hollow and rotate, but they are short. It also has a blade-like structure on the underside of the fang, which is seen only in a few other snake groups.1

2

It has large head shields like colubrids and elapids, instead of the many small scales found on most vipers.1

3

It hibernates during the winter, which is unusual for most vipers.1

4

It is thought to be crepuscular, which means it is most active at dusk and dawn, and it is active from early March into late November.1

Ho senya ditshomo

Tshomo: It is one of the most primitive vipers.

Nnete: It was once thought to be among the most primitive vipers, but molecular studies show it is the sister group to the pit vipers, Crotalinae.1
