==Description== [[Image:gruenebaumpython4cele4.jpg|thumb|''M. viridis'']] The green tree python is characterized by a relatively slim body. The long tail accounts for about 14% of the total length. The head is large and clearly defined from the neck. The snout is large and angular. The body is triangular in cross section with a visible spine. The species usually reaches a total length (including tail) of {{cvt|150|β|180|cm|ft}}, but large females may reach {{cvt|200|cm|ft}}. The size also varies depending on the region of origin. The weight is highly dependent upon the nutritional status of the animal. Males can weigh about {{cvt|1100|-|1400|g|lb}}, females up to {{cvt|1600|g|lb}}, although wild specimens are typically much lighter than this. Especially large specimens that can weigh up to {{cvt|2200|g|lb}} are invariably females, which, like most snakes, are slightly larger and heavier than males.{{citation needed|date=September 2015}}
