Hutton’s Pitviper
Tropidolaemus huttoni
Tropidolaemus huttoni is a little-known venomous pitviper species endemic to the Southern Western Ghats of India. No subspecies are currently recognized. Little is known about this species, as this species is known only from two young individuals, based on which it was first described in 1949. Despite long-term and targeted herpetological surveys in the particular hill range (Meghamalai), it has never been re-sighted there or elsewhere since then.
