Elaphe davidi, also known commonly as Pere David's rat snake, is a species of snake in the family Colubridae. The species is endemic to East Asia.

Etymology

The specific name, davidi, is in honor of Armand David, who was a French zoologist and priest.[3]

Geographic range

E. davidi is found mainly in China, and its presence in North Korea is considered uncertain.[1]

Habitat

The preferred natural habitats of E. davidi are forest and grassland, at altitudes of 100–900 m (330–2,950 ft), but it has also been found in agricultural areas such as orchards.[1]

Diet

E. davidi preys upon frogs, lizards, and snakes. Captive specimens have also eaten mice.[1]

Reproduction

E. davidi is oviparous.[2] Eggs are laid in August, and clutch size is 7–8.[1]
