Well there are many direct relatives of the Anaconda. Rainbow Boas for one. I almost want to say the third is called Red. I could be very wrong but it seems that I've heard that somewhere.

Eunectes deschauenseei is the third.

No such species of the two other you had listed where i was looking.

This is the species i found on this site though nobody has any write up to conclude the species.
Color isn't base reffered though just called a dark spotted/deschauenseei anaconda. It does say it resembles the notaeus.

This is the link: http://www.nafcon.dircon.co.uk/eunectes.htm

Leave your money at the door...

HJ has it right. Eunectes deschauenseei is the third species of anaconda. It was described by Emmett Dunn & Roger Conant in 1936, and is named for Rodolphe Meyer de Schauensee.

The taxonomic status of this snake is uncertain, but for now, it is recognized.

As to the species that Thomasito's book made reference to, I can say without a doubt that those are typos. Tropidophis amd Ungaliophis are both genera of "dwarf boas". These genera are no longer considered to be boids, and are now in a separate family.

I went serching for the third species out of curiosity. I found a site that had four species but when i searched through the whole crappy thing, it revealed nothing. [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_evil.gif[/img]
Then i found the link up top...

Also, Ben Seigels Reptiles claims to have a fake albino anaconda for $700. They say that it is very rare and there is only 3 in the states... I was thinking that if it is so rare then wouldn't it be a lot more $$ than that? Would anybody know what genre/species it derived from??

Thomasito, Mattison's book was pretty useless in my opinion. I was very disappointed.
