text: # Xylophis stenorhynchus
  
  Xylophis stenorhynchus (Günther's mountain snake) is a species of snake found in the Western Ghats of India.
  
  The status of Xylophis indicus as a junior synonym of X. stenorhynchus is tentative as it is only known from one specimen collected more than a century ago. However, there is a tentative recent sighting from the Meghamalai Wildlife Sanctuary.
