  • Black above, with yellow bands across the back1
  • Yellow lips with black edges1
  • Black or bluish underside, sometimes speckled with yellow, and a yellow throat1
  • Can grow to about 240 to 270 cm long1
  • Has a triangular body cross-section1

Ñu ngi koy faral di jaxasoo ak: The mangrove snake can be confused with the banded krait, which has alternating black and yellow crossbands and a triangular body. The banded krait is extremely venomous, so treat any black and yellow banded snake with caution.1

The snake has rear fangs and a venom gland linked to them. It has to chew to release the venom, which is released gradually. Its venom is weak, and the rear fangs are small, so it is hard for the snake to sink them into a person's arm or leg. Moderate bites have caused intense swelling.1
