Malabar Pit Viper
One of the Malabar Pitvipers we saw on night hikes in rainforests of Karnataka, India. Convergently, they were very similar in appearance and behavior to arboreal vipers I’ve seen in Central and South America.

A Malabar Pitviper from southern India a couple of years ago on a wet night in the Western Ghats. After seeing a few of them, the convergent similarities in form and behavior with new world vipers, like the eyelash vipers, is amazing.
