(2019)
Micrurus is a monophyletic genus of venomous coral snakes of the family Elapidae. The ~80 recognized species
within this genus are endemic to the Americas, and are distributed from southeastern United States to ...
The golden lancehead Bothrops insularis (Serpentes: Viperidae) relies on two seasonally plentiful bird species visiting its island habitat
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTDABINGDON, 2013-08-02)
Adult individuals of the island pitviper Bothrops insularis have a diet based on birds. We analysed bird species recorded in the gut of this snake and found that it relies on two out of 41 bird species recorded on the ...

Biogeography, vicariance and conservation of snakes of the neglected and endangered Caatinga region, north-eastern Brazil
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-05-01)
AimOur aims were to test the predictions of the vicariance model, searching for natural, non-random biogeographical units using data on snake distributions, and to assess the conservation of biogeographical patterns and ...
When Basking Is Not an Option: Thermoregulation of a Viperid Snake Endemic to a Small Island in the South Atlantic of Brazil
(Amer Soc Ichthyologists & Herpetologists, 2012-09-20)
It is broadly accepted that snakes are able to regulate their body temperature (T-b) behaviorally, but fundamental differences in this ability have been suggested to exist between temperate and tropical species. Herein, ...

Tracking climatically suitable areas for an endemic Cerrado snake under climate change
(Assoc Brasileira Ciencia Ecologica E Conservacao, 2014-06-01)
This study explores how climate change could potentially drive shifts in the geographic range of the Cerrado endemic snake Phalotris latiuittatus. By using three ecological niche modeling methods, I found that P. lativittatus ...
