Just to let everyone know,

each sub species of the curtus family is now considered its own species.
Therefore there is no more python curtus brongersmai.

it is now,

Python Curtus (black)
Python Brietensteini (borneo)
Python brongersmai (red blood)

Guess i will have to change my whole website....lol

Really??? All blood species seem so closely related to me. Who decide of that, any paper to read? I'ld to see the reason why such a change.

Are we gonna have to change the comon name also? Blood python, borneo python and Black python? Are the malaisian and sumatran red blood are still consider as locals ar now as sub-species?

Tell us more!!!

Thanks for the info!
