Sexual dimorphism in aipysurine sea snakes (Elapidae, Hydrophiinae)
The transition from terrestrial to aquatic life by hydrophiine elapid snakes modified targets of natural selection and likely affected sexual selection also. Thus, the shift to marine life also might have affected sexual dimorphism.

Snake Venom Protease Detection and Inhibition in Serum. [PDF]
A fluorescence assay enables sensitive detection of the activities of snake venom metalloproteases (SVMP) and serine proteases (SVSP) from viper venoms in buffer and serum. In combination with effective low‐molecular‐weight inhibitors such as ilomastat and nafamostat, this approach offers new prospects for the rapid diagnosis and adjunctive therapy of ...

Occurrence and evolution of cannibal behaviour in extant snakes. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Extant snakes (Serpentes) are a highly diverse group of squamate reptiles, which have independently evolved key morphological adaptations to consume a large variety of vertebrate and invertebrate prey. While these predator–prey interactions have been widely addressed by several studies, little is known regarding the occurrence of cannibal ...

Biodiversity and Conservation Challenges in the Alédjo Wildlife Reserve (AWR) in Togo: Insights From Ethnozoological Surveys. [PDF]
The present study analyzes wildlife species use indices and a vulnerability in the Aledjo Wildlife Reserve (AWR) in Togo. The Importance Value‐in‐use Index (IVIUsp) indicates that the most valued species are the patas monkey (Erythrocebus patas), the forest cobra (Naja melanoleuca), and the green mamba (Dendroaspis viridis).

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Sinomicrurus peinani (Serpentes: Elapidae)
Sinomicrurus peinani is a new species of the genus Sinomicrurus (Serpentes: Elapidae) from China and Vietnam in 2020. In this study, we successfully sequenced mitochondrial genome of an individual S. peinani.

Prey-selective venoms and toxins have been documented across only a few species of snakes. The lack of research in this area has been due to the absence of suitably flexible testing platforms.
