Ficus laevis, Permai Resort, Santubong, Kuching

The Santubong Peninsula viewed from the beach next to the Permai Rainforest Resort near Kuching. All photos by Quentin Phillipps taken December 2017.

The dense vegetation on the right hand-side of this  restaurant balcony  at the Permai Rainforest Resort, near Kuching hosted a very prolific Ficus laevis along with a poisonous pit-viper.
Female  Keeled Pit-viper  Tropidolaemus subannulatus waiting on the ground below the balcony probably for a rat to pass by. These snakes have a venomous bite that can prove fatal.
