Slender Worm Snake (Pseudoindotyphlops porrectus)

Observer

Place

9G2H+H4R, Sattal Rd, Sattal, Uttarakhand 263136, India (Google, OSM)

Description

Elevation was approximately 4,000 feet. Snake was ~20.5cm long and just under 0.4cm in diameter. Note head shape, also extensive white on subcaudals and quite pointed tail. Tried to do my best on scale images but camera quality was limited.

Appears to be something in T. porrectus group, but group is under flux so who knows. T. pammeces is a possibility.

Description

A bike seems to have run over its head. The snake was barely moving when we first encountered it. When we returned in the afternoon to the same spot, the snake was no longer there. Hoping that it was able to recover.
