Wikipedia Abstract

The Bandy-bandy (Vermicella annulata) is a species of snake in the Elapidae family. It is endemic to Australia. Individuals are marked with alternating black and white or yellowish bands, which give the species both its common names and the Latin name (from the diminutive form, annul-, of the Latin anus, meaning "ring").
