The white-lipped snake Drysdalia coronoides is a small venomous snake from Australia. It lives in cool forests, meadows and shrublands in the southeast of the mainland and Tasmania.
The white-lipped snake differs by its small size, smooth scales and a white stripe on the lips. It helps maintain balance in nature by eating small animals.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
