Talk:List of reptiles of Korea

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vipera berus sachalinensis, Common viper. Is this one in Korea outside captivity? --Gbleem 01:09, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Judging from this The Amphibians and Reptiles of Our Land (Korean) file from the Ministry of Environment of the ROK, it seems so. There's a brief list of reptiles on page 9, and Vipera berus sachalinensis is included. --Kjoonlee 02:17, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Here are the snakes from that list:

  1. Elaphe rufodorsata
  2. Elaphe taeniura taeniura
  3. Eremias argus
  4. Rhabdophis tigrinus tigrinus
  5. Takydromus amurensis
  6. Takydromus aureralis
  7. Takydromus wolteri

I didn't add them to the article because I don't know a thing about snakes. (Pelamis platrrus seems to be a typo. Agkistrodon saxatilis seems to be the old name of Gloydius saxatilus. Dinodon rufozonatus rufozonatus is Dinodon rufozonatum, maybe?)--Kjoonlee 02:42, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Oops, some of them were lizards. --Kjoonlee 03:39, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
