Taxonomic Status of the Snake Genera Conopsis and Toluca (Colubridae)

متن کاملTaxonomic revision of Drymoluber Amaral, 1930 (Serpentes: Colubridae).

Sexual dimorphism occurs in D. dichrous and D. brazili but was not detected in D. apurimacensis. Morphological variation within D. dichrous is related to geographic distance between populations. Furthermore, va...
متن کاملGeographic Variation and Taxonomic Status of the Southernmost Populations of Liophis Miliaris (linnaeus, 1758) (serpentes: Colubridae)

We examined 222 specimens from Argentina and Paraguay, including those from the areas of overlap of L. m. semiaureus and L. m. orinus, and compared these data with previous taxonomic revisions. We performed univariate statistical tests comparing L. m. ...

We recognize a new species which is distinguished from all currently recognized congeners by the following unique combination of characters: first third of body black or dark gray; vertebral stripe yellowish or creamish white distinct from dorsals of nape and extending th...
