Eutrachelophis is a genus of snakes, known commonly as ivory-naped snakes, of the family Colubridae. The genus contains two species, which are native to South America. [1]
The following species are recognized as being valid. [1]
The specific name, bassleri, is in honor of Harvey Bassler (1883–1950), who was an American petroleum engineer and herpetologist. [3]
Micrurus is a genus of venomous coral snakes of the family Elapidae.
Leptodeira is a genus of colubrid snakes commonly referred to as cat-eyed snakes. The genus consists of 18 species that are native to primarily Mexico and Central America, but range as far north as the Rio Grande Valley region of Texas in United States and as far south as Argentina in South America.
Erythrolamprus is a genus of colubrid snakes, commonly known as false coral snakes, native to Central America, the Caribbean, and the northern part of South America. They appear to be coral snake mimics.
Bothrops fonsecai, also known commonly as Fonseca's lancehead, is a species of venomous snake in the family Viperidae. The species is endemic to Brazil.
Liotyphlops schubarti is a species of snake in the family Anomalepididae. The species is endemic to Brazil.
Liotyphlops wilderi is a species of snake in the family Anomalepididae. The species is endemic to Brazil.
The Espírito Santo blind snake is a species of snake in the family Leptotyphlopidae. The species is endemic to Brazil.
Atractus is a genus of colubrid ground snakes in the subfamily Dipsadinae. The genus includes more than 140 distinct species.
Chironius laurenti is a species of nonvenomous snake in the family Colubridae. The species is endemic to Bolivia and Brazil. The species was named in honor of Raymond Laurent.
The Lamprophiidae are a family of snakes found throughout much of Africa, including the Seychelles. There are 89 species as of July 2022.
Colubroidea is a superfamily of snakes in the clade Colubroides that includes Colubridae, with some studies splitting Colubridae into multiple families that make up Colubroidea. Historically, Colubroidea also included other caenophidian snakes such as cobras and vipers, as these snakes form a clade. However these groups are now divided into several distinct, but related, families. Zaher et al. (2009) proposed to redefine Colubroidea for colubrids and related families, while designating Colubroides as the group containing vipers and cobras as well as colubroids. The ReptileDatabase considers Colubroidea to be composed of Colubridae and the members of its sister group, Elapoidea, and does not recognize the division of Colubridae into multiple families.
Dipsadinae is a large subfamily of colubroid snakes, sometimes referred to as a family (Dipsadidae). They are found in most of the Americas, including the West Indies, and are most diverse in South America. There are more than 700 species.
Mussurana is a genus of snakes in the family Colubridae. The genus is endemic to South America.
D'Albertis' python, also known commonly as D'Albert's water python or the northern white-lipped python, is a species of python, a non-venomous snake in the family Pythonidae. The species is endemic to New Guinea. There are no subspecies that are recognized as being valid.
Lygophis is a genus of snakes in the subfamily Dipsadinae of the family Colubridae. The genus is endemic to Panama and South America.
Amerotyphlops is a genus of snakes in the family Typhlopidae.
Amaral's ground snake is a species of snake in the family Colubridae. The species is endemic to Brazil.
The Colubroides are a clade in the suborder Serpentes (snakes). It contains over 85% of all the extant species of snakes. The largest family is Colubridae, but it also includes at least six other families, at least four of which were once classified as "Colubridae" before molecular phylogenetics helped in understanding their relationships. It has been found to be monophyletic.
Baliodryas is a genus of snakes in the family Colubridae. It is monotypic, being represented by the single species, Baliodryas steinbachi. It is endemic to South America.
Apostolepis gaboi, also known commonly as the sand dunes blackhead and the cobra-rainha das dunas in Brazilian Portuguese, is a species of snake in the family Colubridae. The species is endemic to Brazil.
