(Rendahl & Vestergren, 1941)

Ecuadorian Annulated Tree Boa (Corallus blombergi) is a medium sized species of tree boa endemic only to west of the Andes on the Pacific coast of Ecuador . In Biology, a species is one of the basic units of Biological classification and a Taxonomic rank. Endemism is the Ecological state of being unique to a place Endemic species are not naturally found elsewhere The Andes form the world's longest exposed Mountain range. They lie as a continuous chain of highland along the western coast of South America. A country's Pacific coast is the part of its Coast facing the Pacific Ocean. For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic Ecuador topics. Formerly a subspecies of Corallus annulatus, the C. blombergi was given a species status in 2001, primarily due to its significantly different bone morphology, color and scalation. Nothing much is known about their natural history and there are no known specimens of C. blombergi in captivity. ^[1]
