Bombay caecilian

The Bombay caecilian ("Ichthyophis bombayensis") is an amphibian found in India. This rather large species is found in the northern Western Ghats. The eyes are distinct and surrounded by a light ring. The tentacle is placed closer to the lip than the eye. A dark brown or greyish-brown species, it has no lateral stripes.
The three names below are presently considered to be junior synonyms of "I. bombayensis", as it was recently shown that all the unstriped, long-tailed "Ichthyophis" from the Western Ghats showed little genetic variation.
