* I am almost certain I have seen a young specimen m the Western Himalayas • (Ranibagh 

 Almora District Circa 2,000 feet). It had its head protruding from a hole in a stone facing, and I stood 

 withiS two yards of it for a minute or two but failed to catch it. I could see distinctly the bright 

 Ssh head! a black transverse occipital stripe, and two black stripes from the eye, the twc -lower 

 ones typically seen in radiatus. As far as lam aware there is no other bnake in the Western 

 Himalayas with these distinctive marks.
