The Malay World

Postby Kim Jespersen » Tue Jun 26, 2012 5:24 pm

Hello,

Just found this forum. I am in a position where I regularly have the oppertunity to travel in Malaysia and Indonesia. I try to find some time to go herping while I am there. In this post I will show pictures of finds during trips in North Sumatra, Java, Sabah, Sarawak, and some from Kalimantan. Some of you might have seen the pictures before, as they have been posted on other herp and photo forums.

Hope you will enjoy - and feel free to ask questions about the region in question...

Weeding my inlaws garden I accidentally damaged an egg hiding in the soil under a mango tree. I broke open the egg and this Bronchocela came out, unfortunately it died shortly after. ID was made from the pointed ends of the eggs - see next picture

Trimeresurus puniceus, this snake is incredibly well camouflaged - a friend almost put his hand right on it, and even after I told him he had difficulties seeing it. Bedogol, West Java
