Who am I #3
I have a very slender body and move very fast...... and I am a diurnal animal My colouration is brown to dark brown with 2 thin yellowish stripes either side of my spine. My belly is cream, normally with a yellow stripe down the middle. My upper labials are normally creamy to yellowish white. I feed predominantly on lizards and I prefer to live in sandy savannah in the North East of South Africa Who Am I?

Scientific name: Psammophis jallae is the correct answer! I have to admit that I knew nothing about this snake until I browsed the Wildlifecampus 'Snakes and Reptiles of the Lowveldt' course and chose it as a quiz question! I should have posted more clues but my main computer went down (corrupted hard-drive disc or something equally technical that I didn't understand and still don't!) and, to be frank, I could not remember which snake I had posted the question about at the time as I had put the information into a word doc that was lost! :oops:

Some kind of snake? I don't know my snakes very well. I'll have to look it up.
Okay, I looked it up. I think it's the spotted grass snake: http://www.geocities.com/snakes_of_sa/index.html I am indeed a snake but not a spotted grass snake - as a clue the first part of my taxonomic name means 'sand racers'
