Burms/Indian Pythons, And anacondas are banned from interstate trade by the Lacey act.
Not quite that, either - Burms, afrocks (both sebae and natalensis), and yellow anacondas.
Indian pythons were already restricted, because they are on the USFW Endangered Species list (way back when, non natives were put on this list...then CITES happened).
Green anacondas were not affected.

Also, they weren't banned, technically - they were added to the injurious wildlife list, which prohibits importation and interstate transport.
