The olive eastern thread snake is a small non-venomous snake with a very thin body and smooth olive-colored scales. It lives in the mountain forests of the Himalayas and feeds on small invertebrates.
This snake differs from related species by its completely smooth scales and small size. It is important for nature because it eats soil invertebrates and serves as food for birds and mammals.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
