Photographed at Laguna Lagarto last March in Costa Rica. Not sure if these Eyelash Viper species are broken down further into individual species. If anyone knows the exact ID for this species, please let me know.

Great image Tim, we been missing your art, Welcome back!!!

P.S. They are and will keep as one single specie, "Bothriechis schlegelii" as they all come from the same birth/hatch no matter what color, I have seen an eyelash viper "giving birth" 18 baby snakes in all different colors including this one and the yellow one.
