| Comment | |
| Etymology | The specific epithet “vogeli” is named after Mr. Gernot Vogel (Heidelberg, Germany), for his excellent contributions to the taxonomy of the genus Dendrelaphis. He and his collaborators published a series of articles to resolve taxonomic problems in this genus and described several new species. |
