There are specimens in the British Museum from Penang from 

 Dr. Cantor, and from Singapore from Dr. Dennys. Stoliczka 

 found it in the collection he got from Penang and Province 

 Wellesley. I obtained one specimen in Penang ; but in Singapore, 

 about Tanglin, found this Snake in abundance, coloured either 

 bright green or light brown ; judging from the specimens I 

 observed, the green variety seems to predominate aud to grow to 

 a larger size than the brown. The longest green one I measured 

 was 1778 mm. iu length, but I have seen one about 2000 mm. 

 These Snakes are very gentle when handled.
