Searching for the Blunt-Headed Tree Snake / Fiddle-String Snake, Imantodes cenchoa, at night in the mountains of the Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica.
Corrections / additional comments:
00:00 - Meant to say river prawn, not shrimp.
00:32 - All river prawns on the Osa Peninsula are in the genus Macrobrachium.
01:02 - Pereiopods, not pedipalps.
02:03 - Misidentification, tentatively going with Deilelater radians instead.
02:52 - Specifically in the New World and only in the tripe Pyrophorinii from what I can tell.
05:15 - Spliced in a different clip of a larger male here late in the video editing process, which is why my statement does not make sense.
11:20 - You cannot see it in this clip, but some bats vibrate while at rest and content, but not while they are sleeping.
Chapters:
00:00 - Hancock's River Prawn (Macrobrachium hancocki)
02:03 - Headlight / Fire Beetle (cf. Deilelater radians)
03:10 - Blunt-Headed Tree / Fiddle-String Snake #1 (Imantodes cenchoa)
04:22 - Longhorn Beetle (Mallodon chevrolatii)
05:25 - Koehler's Vine Snake (Oxybelis koehleri)
06:49 - Red Postmen (Heliconius erato)
07:26 - Harvestman (Parahernandria)
08:35 - Blunt-Headed Tree / Fiddle-String Snake #2 (Imantodes cenchoa)
09:59 - Wood-Colored Mushroomtongue Salamander (Bolitoglossa lignicolor)
10:55 - Pygmy Fruit-Eating Bat (Artibeus phaeotis)
11:28 - Stick Insect (Xylospinodes jensjohannseni)
12:35 - Helmeted Iguana (Corytophanes cristatus)
13:48 - Blunt-Headed Tree / Fiddle-String Snake #3 (Imantodes cenchoa)

I went to the Osa peninsula back when I was a little kid. I saw toucans, squirel monkeys, tailless whip scorpions, Howler monkeys, sloths, red eyed tree frogs, cane toads, and tarantulas. It was awesome. I ran shirtless and shoeless through the jungle to the beach with a blue heeler named Coco. And that beach. My god. It was the most free I have ever felt. When people ask me what my happy place is, I think of Osa. I hope I get to go there again as an adult one day. Thank you for making my day and reminding me of some of my fondest childhood memories.

Thank you so much for the work that you put into these videos. Tons of information, factual and concise commentary, and the most gorgeous animals ever. Not to mention your passion and knowledge that shines through. I've been introduced to so many new animals (again) and such cute ones at that! Hancock's River Prawn, the Headlight beetle, the Blunt-Headed Tree snake, Koehler's Vine snake, Wood-Colored Mushroomtongue Salamander and the Helmeted Iguana have become my favourites. So adorable! And the prawn has to be one of the most gorgeous animals I've ever seen, its exoskeleton seems to be as blue as the ocean, what a beautiful creature. What also strikes me is that blue is quite an uncommon colour in the animal kingdom, so for an animal to have such intense coloration is striking. Thank you for introducing such fascinating animals, I anticipate your next video patiently!

Gave it a thumbs up as always. Love your videos! Just a quick note: The pincers in crustaceans are not pedipalps (1:01). They are just modified pereiopods and in Macrobrachium it is the second pair, not even the first one like in lobsters, crabs and crayfish etc.

On the idea of beetle spots looking like animal eyes looking back at you: that's only familiar to humans because we have light sources since a lot of animals' eyes are functionally retroreflectors. Unless you had the moon directly behind you, you would never see this in the dark.

I really enjoy these videos. I used to catch a different species of Macrobrachium shrimp in South Florida that were quite large, but their 'claws' (pereiopods?) were much longer and skinnier. I'm thinking they were M. carcinus. We also had a species of Heliconian, H. charithonia, that would roost communually (like the ones in your video) underneath a bottlebrush tree on my property because of the Passion vines on my fence (host). From what I've read, they have a route that they follow during the day for food sources.
@GeneralApathy
@GeneralApathy 2 месяца назад
Almost certainly M. carcinus. The pereiopods of M. acanthurus are also long and slender, but that species is relatively small. Saw quite a few H. charithonia in Costa Rica (more than H. erato during the day), but never figured out where they were hanging at night. The part about daytime routes makes a lot of sense; they seem to make heavy use of cleared trails.

A lot of cool stuff per usual in this video. I always like biological superlatives so those headlight beetles are wild. I was already a fan of click beetles and I didn't know there were some that were so bright. I liked the snakes too, I think it's interesting to see such a thin and long animal as the vine snake, it's sort of surreal. This channel hits my brain perfectly.

Awesome video! I spent a week in the Osa Peninsula last May/June, and an Imantodes cenchoa was one of two snakes I managed to come across. It was very cool seeing some of the species I managed to find, like that Helmeted Iguana, although you definitely beat me in some ways, like those bioluminescent click beetles and the Oxybelis! I finally got my lifer Oxybelis last month in Quintana Roo, so that's nice. Now just to find an Arizona one... Also, if you don't mind, do you do your voiceovers in the field? I assume so with the amazing jungle background noises. I'm curious about what microphone you use, as I've had trouble finding something with such good quality that's durable enough to use in the field.

@@azrobbins01 it does but ok. with the fangs being in the back of their mouths and grooved they have to chew prey to inject the venom iirc, so the snake doesn't need to develop lethal venom and relies on other strategies instead. some still do develop lethal ones though like boomslangs I think but its rare because its pretty impractical so most don't

good question. If someone told me my food was "mildly poisonous" I would not eat it at all. I always find it funny when animal people handle animals and say "mildly" poisonous or venomous or explosive. Looking it up just says "not dangerous to humans" level of venomous.
