Gongylosoma Fitzinger (type species: Coronella baliodeira Boie 1827) |
Contents:
8 species, of which 3 (37.5%) are endemic.
Endemism: 0%  100%
Remarks:
This genus was resurrected from the synonymy of
Liopeltis
by Leviton (1964), but this arrangement was not widely followed initially.
However, there is now consensus that the genus is valid
(e.g., Grismer, Das & Leong 2003; David, Cox, Pauwels, Chanhome & Thirakhupt 2004; Das 2010; Mirza, Bhardwaj, Pal, Lalremsanga, Vogel, Campbell & Patel 2024).
Three species (calamaria, frenata, pallidonuchalis) were transferred more recently from
Liopeltis
(Mirza, Bhardwaj, Pal, Lalremsanga, Vogel, Campbell & Patel 2024).
Distribution:
S. Asia, Malay Archipelago.
