The White Liped Vipers(Trimeresurus albolabris) can sometimes get up to 100cm long. Females are bigger. Their venom isn`t very dangerous to man. I don`t know the exact LD50 but you can check that out at www.venomdoc.com. Pope`s Tree Vipers get to about the same size. They tend to be a bit smaller. Females are also bigger. They are more toxic than the white lips, their bites can cause severe necroses but very rarely death. Best regards, Alex S.
