Python boeleni Brongersma, 1953.

Hoser (2000) established thismonotypic genus for Morelia boeleni stating “while the Boelen’s Python (boeleni) has close affinities with the carpet pythons, there is no evidence before this author to suggest that the relationship is any closer than that between the Green (viridis) and carpets. Thus if viridis is entitled to be placed in a separate genus to the carpets, so too should be boeleni” (Hoser 2000: 21–22). Rawlings et al. (2008) supported monophyly of the genus Morelia including Morelia boeleni. Lenhoserus would therefore only be a subgenus within Morelia. Other authors have not adopted this name, and, in adherence to nomenclatural stability, we regard Lenhoserus as a subjective junior synonym of Morelia (see comments there).
