"The scales are small and smooth and in appearance the snake is stiped or brindled."

Apparently "stiped" is a real word, but I'm guessing that "striped" is what is meant here. Yahoo dictionary says "stipe" is "A supporting stalk or stemlike structure, especially the stalk of a pistil, the petiole of a fern frond, or the stalk that supports the cap of a mushroom." anon 09:04, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
