Spatial ecology of true sea snakes (Hydrophiinae) in coastal waters of North Queensland [PDF]
Aquatic snakes are a diverse group that represent multiple evolutionary transitions from a terrestrial to an aquatic mode of life. Current systematics of aquatic snakes identifies four independent lineages (file snakes, Acrochordidae; homalopsid snakes ...

The Evolution of Cutaneous Senses in Marine Snakes (Hydrophiinae) [PDF]
Front-fanged elapid snakes (subfamily: Hydrophiinae) have invaded marine habitats twice: the oviparous sea kraits that diverged approximately 18 million years ago and the viviparous sea snakes that diverged approximately six million years ago.
