Amazon Basin Emeralds are small to medium sized boas with adults averaging 3-6’. This species is found in the lowland jungles encompassing a large portion of the Amazon River Basin from the southern portions of Surinam, Guyana, and Venezuela to Colombia, Peru and Brazil. This snake makes an impression with its brilliant yellow belly, deep emerald green body and stark white pattern centered along the spine with bars and triangles coming of the white stripe. The amount of white pattern varies quite a bit between individuals.
I keep a small group of these amazing snakes.
