Corallus grenadensis (Barbour, 1914) |
Grenadian Tree Boa (Corallus grenadensis) or Grenadian Bank Tree Boa is a species of tree boa with a variable color diversity endemic only to the island of Grenada and smaller Grenadines: Bequia, Ile Quatre, Baliceaux, Mustique, Canouan, Mayreau, Union Island, and Carriacou. Lizards and mammals make up the primary diet of Corallus grenadensis. They have wide range of habitats, mainly encountered in drier scrublands and wet rainforests. They are rarely found in captivity.[1]
