The country chapter

One country.
Many island worlds.

Rainforest landscapes in Sumatra, seasonal islands around Komodo, and the mountain-to-coast environments of Papua offer very different starting points for exploring Indonesia’s snakes.

Deep-water straits across Wallacea separate island groups from the Asian and Australian continental shelves. The locality matters: a species recorded on one island cannot simply be assigned to its neighbours. Landscape sources

Sources & coverage

Follow the evidence.

Species accounts use the Reptile Database and relevant primary studies. Conflicting records are qualified or omitted; omitted species and regions are not claims of absence.

Landscape references below describe particular protected areas or regional geography. They are not evidence that a listed snake occurs inside a named park. Species-level references appear on each account.

615 candidates were checked across country and island indexes: 374 included, 8 unresolved, and 233 excluded. Search-index membership alone is not accepted as a distribution record.
