Many-banded Coral Snake (Micrurus multifasciatus) uncovered
I found this coral snake by digging through leaf litter with my hands in a failed attempt to rediscover a salamander that had vanished under the leaves moments before. This is not a recommended method for locating coral snakes.

This is a long, slender 2 colored (sometimes 3 colored) coral snake, adults usually 75 to 90 cm long, with many rings around its body.
