Osteology of the skull of the blind snake Helminthophis flavoterminatus (Peters, 1857) (Serpentes, Anomalepididae)
The blind snake Helminthophis flavoterminatus (Peters, 1857) is a species of Anomalepididae with distribution throughout northwestern Venezuela and western Colombia. Its osteology is poorly known, and thus this study presents information on its skull structure based on High-Resolution X-Ray Computed Tomography. The absence of the supraoccipital bone can be used for the determination of H. flavoterminatus in relation to its congeners, Helminthophis frontalis (Peters, 1860) and Helminthophis praeocularis Amaral, 1924.
期刊介绍：
Zoosystematics and Evolution, formerly Mitteilungen aus dem Museum für Naturkunde in Berlin, is an international, open access, peer-reviewed life science journal devoted to whole-organism biology. It publishes original research and review articles in the field of Metazoan taxonomy, biosystematics, evolution, morphology, development and biogeography at all taxonomic levels. The journal''s scope encompasses primary information from collection-related research, taxonomic descriptions and discoveries, revisions, annotated type catalogues, aspects of the history of science, and contributions on new methods and principles of systematics. Articles whose main topic is ecology, functional anatomy, physiology, or ethology are only acceptable when of systematic or evolutionary relevance and perspective.
