wow, cold brings interesting plays!
1. Melanistic Vipera latastei/ Vipera ursinii / blue Rana arvalis / tiger designed aspis / macrovipera schweizeri / Vipera ammodytes / Telescopus fallax... I can´t decide just 1
![Embarrassed :oops:](./images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
I need to make more trips in Spain, also to Ventoux, Grecce and Belgium!
2. Best photo possible in Europe: maybe to flip a metalic thing and find a huge male Malpolon monspessulanus eating a Vipera latastei. It´s very difficult and I would feel sad about the viper but it could be very impressive, as indigo snake eating a crotalus but in spanish edition
3. My top 20 are (not count species I´ve already seen):
1. Pseudocerastes urarachnoides
2. Bitis nasicornis (juvenile very coloured)
3. Atheris hispida
4. Echis pyramidum leakeyi
5. Acantophis anctarticus
6. Crotalus cerastes (I know, I know)
7. Bitis gabonica
8. Dentroaspis polylepis
9. Aspidelaps lubricus
10. Eristocophis macmahonii
11. Naja nigricollis
12. Bitis caudalis
13. Echis ocellatus
14. Telescopus semiannulatus
15. Platyceps sinai (caused my the Israel herp fever about this pretty snake)
16. Montivipera wagneri
17.Vipera dinniki (black with orange zigzag)
18. Daboia russelli
19. Naja nivea (uniform yellow)
20. Dasypeltis medici
and more, more, more, more....
