They have three yellow spots posterior to the head shields, [3] to which the specific name occipitomaculata (meaning spotted back of the head) refers.
Red blood cell extravasation and deposition of hemosiderin that follows clinically appear as hyperpigmentation, which can occur in a reticular distribution. It has also been proposed that the distribution of affected blood vessels—predominantly in the superficial subcutaneous plexus (found in the papillary dermis )—results in the net-like ...

The red-bellied black snake was first described and named by English naturalist George Shaw in Zoology of New Holland (1794) as Coluber porphyriacus.

Red spots may or may not be present. The pattern is usually seen throughout the stomach. [2] A similar pattern can be seen with a related condition called gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE), or watermelon stomach. However, in GAVE, the ectatic blood vessels are more commonly found in the antrum or lower part of the stomach. [2]
The neon yellow, orange or red spots on the rear of the abdomen are variable in size among individuals and sometimes absent. This species is parasitised by a wasp larva which attaches itself externally at the junction of the cephalothorax and abdomen.
