Black Thread Snake (L. nigricans)according to geographical distribution, but similar to Slender Thread Snake (L. graciolor). |

I would not like to guess whether this specimen is L. nigricans or L. gracilior. I don't think that the distribution is a reliable indicator in this case. Illustrations and descriptions in the guides suggest it could be either. |
