Calamorhabdium acuticeps
Range
Sulawesi, Indonesia
The Sulawesi iridescent snake is a calamariine colubrid described as Calamorhabdium acuticeps by Ernst Ahl in 1933. The species is restricted to Sulawesi in the available catalogue, and its type locality is Ileile in northern Sulawesi. The name combines Latin roots referring to a sharpened or pointed head. The accessible database did not expose the detailed diagnosis or measurements (Reptile Database).
This snake lays eggs. Published references include a modern elevational survey from Gunung Galang and Gunung Dako Nature Reserve as well as regional treatments of Sulawesi reptiles, but the opened catalogue does not provide extractable species-level diet, habitat, behaviour, size, clutch or incubation data. Those fields are left blank rather than inferred from other fossorial-looking calamariines or from the common name's reference to iridescence (Reptile Database reference list).
