This article seems to be an ever so slightly modified version of the Pit viper article. --Aaron Walden 16:22, 28 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Undid eyelash batting edit

lol, ok very funny. I removed the following which was under the reproduction section.

"The eyelashes from which they draw their name, puts prey into a trance when they bat said lashes quickly. This allows them to have time to accurately strike their victim."
Nice try. Albeit27 (talk) 05:11, 24 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Bothriechis schlegelii is a venomous pit viper species found in Central and South America. Small and arboreal, these snakes are characterized by their wide array of color variations, as well as the superciliary scales over the eyes. They are the most common of the palm-pitvipers and are often present in zoological exhibits. The specific name schlegelii honors the German ornithologist, Hermann Schlegel. No subspecies are currently recognized.Photograph: Geoff Gallice

Venom edit

The lead refers to the serpent as highly venomous. But there is not another word on the subject of the venom anywhere in the article. -Ad Orientem (talk) 03:43, 22 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
