Tropidophis pilsbryi, commonly known as Pilsbry's dwarf boa[1] or the Cuban white-necked dwarf boa, is a species of snake in the family Tropidophiidae.[2] The species is endemic to Cuba.[1]
Both the specific name, pilsbryi, and one of the common names, Pilsbry's dwarf boa, are in honor of American malacologist Henry Augustus Pilsbry.[3]
Two subspecies are recognized, including the nominate subspecies:[1]
In 2002 Hedges elevated the subspecies T. p. galacelidus to a full species, T. galacelidus.[4]
Males of T. p. pilsbryi grow to a snout–vent length (SVL) of 295 mm (11.6 in), and females grow to 260 mm (10 in) SVL.[1] T. p. galacelidus can get larger, with a snout–vent length of 187 mm (7.4 in) in males, but 405 mm (15.9 in) SVL in females.[4]
T. pilsbryi is viviparous.[1]
