Blue-bellied black snake
The blue-bellied black snake is a venomous snake from eastern Australia. It is shy and usually moves away from people, but its venom is strong, so it is important to know what it looks like. Bites are rare.1

Its venom is neurotoxic, which means it attacks the nerves, so it can cause severe pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and excessive sweating (diaphoresis). The lymph glands near the bite can also swell (regional lymphadenopathy).1

Xibaar
Its venom is the second most toxic of all the Australian black snakes.1
It is naturally very shy and will usually try to escape rather than confront people.1
Some individuals have a spotted pattern, which is why it is also called the spotted black snake.1
Like most snakes, it lays eggs, with a clutch of 7–12 in the breeding season.1
