A reticulated python kept in the United States in Kansas City, Missouri, named "Medusa" is considered by the Guinness Book of World Records to be the longest living snake ever kept in captivity. In 2011 it was reported to measure 7.67 m (25 ft 2 in) and weigh 158.8 kg (350 lb 2 oz). [35]
The reticulate whipray or honeycomb stingray (Himantura uarnak) is a species of stingray in the family Dasyatidae.It inhabits coastal waters in the western Indian Ocean including the Red Sea, Natal and the Arabian Sea; also a Lessepsian transmigrant in the eastern Mediterranean.
Reticulocytes at less mature levels can be detected by having higher intensity fluorescence regions. An increased immature reticulocyte fraction (IRF), specifically an IRF more than or equal to 0.23, together with an increased absolute reticulocyte count, generally indicates an adequate erythroid response to anemia.

The reticulocyte production index (RPI), also called a corrected reticulocyte count (CRC), is a calculated value used in the diagnosis of anemia.This calculation is necessary because the raw reticulocyte count is misleading in anemic patients.
Adults are large (shell roughly 10–15 cm long by 5 cm wide, body up to 17 cm) with a distinct reticulated (ridged) shell that is the species' namesake.
Also, snakes seem to go for island dwarfism in all the cases I know, including retics. You can go online and buy "dwarf retics" and "super-dwarf retics" with positively tiny adult sizes (6 feet in males), naturally occurring, collected from small islands. Same thing for boa constrictors. HCA 00:55, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
Supravital stain of a smear of human blood from a patient with hemolytic anemia.The reticulocytes are the cells with the dark blue dots and curved linear structures (reticulum) in the cytoplasm.
A reticular cell is a type of fibroblast that synthesizes collagen alpha-1(III) and uses it to produce extracellular reticular fibers.Reticular cells provide structural support, since they produce and maintain the thin networks of fibers that are a framework for most lymphoid organs.
