The side-striped palm pitviper is a green, tree-dwelling snake that lives in the mountain forests of Costa Rica and western Panama. It is venomous, and its bites can be serious, although deaths are rare. Its green colour helps it blend in among the leaves.1

Lives in lower montane forest, wet forest and rainforest, mostly in the thick leaves of trees and shrubs. It is often found at the base of palm fronds. It can survive in coffee plantations but seems to be slowly disappearing from them, and it is common in some protected areas.1

Xibaar

1

Its prehensile tail acts as an anchor when resting and helps it grab prey when it strikes.1

2

Blue specimens are sometimes found in the wild, not only in captivity.1

3

Juveniles are brown, and it takes about 18–24 months for them to change to adult colours.1

4

A polyvalent antivenin that covers this species is produced by the Instituto Clodomiro Picado in Costa Rica.1
