Lycodon subcinctus, Malayan banded wolfsnake, in Letefoho, East Timor
Lycodon is a genus of colubrid snakes, commonly known as wolf snakes.[3] The Neo-Latin name Lycodon is derived from the Greek words λύκος (lykos) meaning wolf and οδόν (odon) meaning tooth,[4] and refers to the fang-like anterior maxillary and mandibular teeth.[2] They are nonvenomous, but many members of this genus strongly resemble the venomous kraits in appearance, an example of Emsleyan mimicry.
