Species

Three species are recognized as being valid.[2]

  • Buhoma depressiceps (F. Werner, 1897)[3] – pale-headed forest snake
  • Buhoma procterae (Loveridge, 1922)[4] – Uluguru forest snake
  • Buhoma vauerocegae (Tornier, 1902)[5] – Usambara forest snake

Nota bene: A binomial authority in parentheses indicates that the species was originally described in a genus other than Buhoma.

gollark: I guess that you could maybe, I don't know, have differences in *measured* temperature depending on where the thermal sensors are, or have different fan control. But that couldn't really change total heat output.
gollark: The *only way* it can heat up is by converting electricity to heat when operating.
gollark: That makes absolutely no sense.
gollark: You are obviously not seeing the people without issues by looking there though.
gollark: Dendrite is somewhat faster but still very resource hungry versus an IRC server or bouncer, and it lacks features.
