Abstract (en):
The first report of the Speckled Blunt-headed Tree Snake (Imantodes inornatus) is presented for the Magdalena River valley, from the departments of Antioquia, Bolívar, Boyacá and Caldas in Colombia. Since these records correspond to the biogeographic Magdalena province, the known range for the species is expanded. In Colombia, this is a trans-Andean species found from the Pacific rainforests of the Chocó region, through the northern portion of the Western and Central Andean ranges, to the middle Magdalena River valley.
Abstract (es):
Se registra por primera vez la serpiente de árbol cabeza moteada (Imantodes inornatus) en el valle del río Magdalena en los departamentos de Antioquia, Bolívar, Boyacá y Caldas, en Colombia. Estos registros corresponden a la provincia biogeográfica del Magdalena, lo que aumenta el área de distribución conocida. En Colombia, esta especie es un elemento transandino que cruza las selvas tropicales del Pacífico de la región chocoana, a través de la porción septentrional de las cordilleras Occidental y Central hasta el valle medio del río Magdalena.
