In search of an old friend with a new Name! We all have our struggle stories of the Pandemic. I was restless at home struggling with whatever pandemic made me go through. And I was waiting for all that to get over so that I can go out for a herping trail in search of the Vipers and other nocturnal fauna that I have not seen for last two years.<br />
One major revision happened in the Pandemic was the updation in the genus Trimeresurus. The Trimeresurus graminius I have seen has now been revsed as Craspedocephalus graminius.<br />
For a common man and for that animal it might not change anything in practical workd but it was fun to go on a search mission with this new update and a gap of couple of years.<br />
