Morelia riversleighensis (Smith & Plane, 1985) - Scanlon, 2001

Remarks:

Smith and Plane (1985) documented significantly lesser curvature in the teeth of this taxon, to that found in species of the genera Python and Morelia, and because “… of the slight curvature of the dentary teeth …” (Smith and Plane 1985: 194) the authors considered this taxon more closely related to Morelia than to Python .
