The Angolan giant blind snake or Angolan giant blind-snake (Afrotyphlops anomalus), also known as the anomalous beaked snake, is a species of snake in the Typhlopidae family. It is endemic to Angola.[1][2] Its classification was changed from Rhinotyphlops to Megatyphlops when Rhinotyphlops was found to be polyphyletic.[3] In 2014 Megatyphlops was changed to Afrotyphlops.[4]
