VENOMOUS BITES BY NONVENOMOUS SNAKES - AN ANNOTATED-BIBLIOGRAPHY OF COLUBRID ENVENOMATION

This bibliography lists 71 publications dealing with human envenomation by colubrid snakes during the years 1873-1988. This information appears in a wide variety of publications in medicine, herpetology, and toxicology. Fifty snake species, many conventionally considered nonvenomous, are included. Reports are divided into those showing evidence of systemic poisoning, usually associated with coagulopathy, and those showing only local signs and symptoms.
