African House Snake A Guide to Lamprophis
- When I first discovered the African House Snake I knew I had found my individual calling in the Herp world.

The opportunity to discover new traits, phases and even species is exceptional. - jjspirko on 2006-08-18

phases". Unlike many typical Colubrids there is still a
tremendous amount of work to be done with House Snakes. It
is the sheer volume of unknowns and taxonomic work yet to be done
that led me to work with African House Snakes.
