Oligodon moricei, commonly known as Morice's kukri snake, is a species of snake in the family Colubridae. The species is endemic to southern Vietnam.

Etymology[edit]

The specific name, moricei, is in honor of French naturalist Albert Morice.[2]

Description[edit]

The species O. morecei differs from its cogenerates by the combination of a “rusty brown” vertebral stripe edged by two black stripes, 12 maxillary teeth, 17 dorsal scale rows, a large number of ventral scales, seven supralabials, and a dark belly.[3]
