The common bronzeback, also known as Daudin's bronzeback, is a non-venomous tree snake of South Asia, long and slender with a pointed head and a bronze-coloured line down its back. It is found in Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh and Nepal, though the account opened says its presence is uncertain in Myanmar, Bhutan and Pakistan (Wikipedia, general species account).
It lays six to eight eggs in April in tree hollows and rotting vegetation. The Reptile Database lists Bhutan in its range, but with that uncertainty noted, so its Bhutan record is flagged for checking. The sources opened give no diet or habitat detail.
