The Oenpelli python, in particular, has been called the rarest python in the world. [4] [5] [6] It is important to be aware that there is considerable variation in the maximum reported size of these species, and most measurements are not truly verifiable, so the sizes listed should not be considered definitive.
Although the name applies to a group of snakes, it is often used to refer only to one species, in particular, the common or green anaconda (Eunectes murinus), [citation needed] which is the largest snake in the world by weight, and the second longest after the reticulated python.
Original description : A size comparison of four different snakes; comparing large individuals of the extant green anaconda (Eunectes murinus) and reticulated python (Malayopython reticulatus) to total length estimates of the extinct Gigantophis and Titanoboa. • The green anaconda is the largest (most massive) extant snake.
“The size of these magnificent creatures was incredible," Fry said in a news release earlier this month. "One female anaconda we encountered measured an astounding 6.3 meters (20.8 feet) long."
