* I am almost certain I have seen a young specimen in the Western Himalayas • (Eanibagh, 

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

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

 reddish head, a black transverse occipital stripe, and two black stripes from the eye, the two lower 

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

 Himalayas with these distinctive marks.
