What is the snake?

[Mario Schweiger]

Moved to "Herp ID´s"

[Tibor Sos]

it'is not Natrix of Vipera, although keeled, is not so strongly keeled. other snakes with keeled scales are the Elaphe species, although more keeled in adult specimens. the pattern of Elaphe (quatuorlineata) sauromates is easy to ID, so it must to be a species with lighter draw, thus a Zamenis longissimus... I only know the Romanian snakes, thus I can compare only with this species... so, this ID is limited.

My guess is a Malpolon!

[Francesco Tri]

Bravo Ilian: why?

[Ilian Velikov]

Because of the dorsal scales which are not actually keeled, but have slightly concave line in the middle (something like a keel but not projecting to the outside but opposite - inside).
