Orthriophis moellendorffi is a non-venomous snake up to two meters long. It inhabits the mountain forests of southern China and northern Vietnam.
Orthriophis moellendorffi differs from related species by its characteristic coloration with orange and green tones. It is important for forests because it limits the number of rodents.
