Phylogeny of snake trypanosomes inferred by SSU rDNA sequences, their possible transmission by phlebotomines, and taxonomic appraisal by molecular, cross-infection and morphological analysis
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2008)
Blood examination by microhaematocrit and haemoculture of 459 snakes belonging to 37 species revealed 24% trypanosome prevalence in species of Viperidae (Crotalus durissus and Bothrops jararaca) and Colubridae (Pseudoboa ...
Phylogenetic analysis of standard metabolic rate of snakes: a new proposal for the understanding of interspecific variation in feeding behavior
(Springer Heidelberg, 2018)
The current proposal about the variation of standard metabolic rates (SMR) in snakes predicts that SMR is influenced by the feeding frequency (frequent or infrequent feeders). However, feeding frequency in snakes is poorly ...
REPRODUCTIVE STRATEGIES OF NEW WORLD CORAL SNAKES, GENUS MICRURUS
(Herpetologists LeagueEmporiaEUA, 2013)
New insights into the phylogeographic distribution of the 3FTx/PLA2 venom dichotomy across genus Micrurus in South America
(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 evolution of the axial skeleton intercentrum system in snakes revealed by new data from the Cretaceous snakes Dinilysia and Najash
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-02)
Snakes are an extremely modifed and long-lived clade of lizards that have either lost or highly altered many of the synapomorphies that would clearly link them to their closest sister-group among squamates. We focus here ...
Temperate snake community in South America: Is diet determined by phylogeny or ecology?
(Public Library of Science, 2015-05)
Communities are complex and dynamic systems that change with time. The first attempts to explain how they were structured involve contemporary phenomena like ecological interactions between species (e.g., competition and ...

The skull of the Upper Cretaceous snake Dinilysia patagonica Smith-Woodward, 1901, and its phylogenetic position revisited
(WILEY-BLACKWELLMALDEN, 2012)
The cranial anatomy of Dinilysia patagonica, a terrestrial snake from the Upper Cretaceous of Argentina, is redescribed and illustrated, based on high-resolution X-ray computed tomography and better preparations made on ...
Phylogeny, Ecology, and Heart Position in Snakes
(Univ Chicago Press, 2010-01-01)
The cardiovascular system of all animals is affected by gravitational pressure gradients, the intensity of which varies according to organismic features, behavior, and habitat occupied. A previous nonphylogenetic analysis ...
