Macropisthodon plumbicolor
A small 15 cm long and less than a cm thick snake. Green color with black stripes. Beautiful snake (non-venomous, - added after identification).
Phansad WildLife Sanctuary (PWLS) near Alibag / Murud / Roha. Dense forest.
Used to assume the curled S-shape to attack. Pink bifid tongue. Quite an active snake. Many photos I took were blurry (even with flash).
perfect identificaton (plz note, I didn't know of it earlier).The suggested Genus species matches the reference given and also to what I saw. Thank you NuwanChathuranga
