What a superb spotting! It would be nice to have some additional information filled in the description, habitat and notes spaces. For instance, as might be guessed, "the popular name "hundred pacer" refers to a local belief that, after being bitten, the victim will only be able to walk 100 paces before [dying]." Here is a reference that could be added: http://www.snakesoftaiwan.com/Deinagkist... Thanks
