Comment: Maybe a synonym to Leptotyphlops brevissimus ...https://reptile-database.reptarium.cz/species?genus=Trilepida&species=brevissima ? Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 17:02, 9 February 2025 (UTC)

The Caqueta blind snake (Trilepida brevissima) is a pale brown fossorial blind snake native to Colombia^[1]^[2] and found between 560–2800 m (1837.3–9186.4 ft) in elevation.^[3] As the name "brevissima" suggests (meaning short or little in Latin), it is small, with a holotype measuring between 6.6–6.8 cm (2.6–2.7 in).^[3]
