A new snake species nicknamed the "Guangxi two-headed #snake#" has been discovered in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. The species, scientifically named Calamaria incredibilis, was identified in the Guangxi Huaping National Nature Reserve and the findings were recently published in the international taxonomy journal Zoosystematics and Evolution. Calamaria incredibilis is a small, slender, non-venomous species measuring only about 22 centimeters in length. Its brown back is marked with seven broken dark stripes, while dark-edged scales create a distinctive net-like pattern. The snake gets its "two-headed" nickname from its defensive behavior. When disturbed, it curls into a figure-eight shape and lifts its blunt tail to resemble a second head, a tactic used to confuse predators. #WildChina#
