Abstract

A method for estimating the age of habu, Trimeresurus flavoviridis, established using individuals in captivity, was applied to individuals captured in the wild. Variations of growth in terms of snout-vent length were analysed within and among several districts of the Okinawa Islands. The growth pattern of habu was similar to that of temperate snake species studied previously.
