Indian Rock Python
Python molurus
The Indian rock python is a large, egg-laying South Asian python with a pale brown ground color, darker irregular blotches and a marked head. It is maintained in specialist and zoological collections. Housing needs secure space for an adult, substantial retreats, water and a controlled thermal gradient. The US Endangered Species Act lists Python molurus molurus. It is in CITES Appendix I, and as injurious under the Lacey Act, restricting US imports and certain shipments. The Burmese python is a separate species.
