==Taxonomy==
''Python kyaiktiyo'' was first [[scientific description|described]] by George R. Zug, Steve W. Gotte, and Jeremy F. Jacobs in 2011 based on a female [[Specimen (biology)|specimen]] collected in [[Kyaiktiyo Wildlife Sanctuary]] in 2002. The presence of unique traits and sufficient [[Allopatric speciation|allopatry]] indicate that it is a unique species and distinct from its nearest geographical counterpart, the [[Python brongersmai|blood python]].<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Zug |first1=G.
