So any idea how toxic the venom of this species is?? I know other Atheris spp. are medically significant.

Exciting to see new species still being found. Sad to see that many species futures look very bleak. Beautiful snake which I hope retains its habitat and future.

There are significant numbers of Atheris cf. ceratophora being exported and potentially several cryptic species to be described. Still people buy wild caught animals. Pity, that.
