Spider tailed viper - because he uses his tail to imitate an insect/worm to lure birds in to eat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvNrOVf17Es

I think sea snakes are pretty unique that they can take in oxygen through there skin

Sand Viper, the ability to use vertical burrowing to bury themselves in the sand and to ambush prey, very cool feature.

Ridleyi beaty rat snake, also known as the cave dwelling racer.

They shove themselves into little cracks in a cave cieling or wall, stretch waaaay out, and gape their mouths for a bat to fly into it.

These guys are also high on my wish list lol.
