Distribution and natural history of the Ecuadorian snake Dipsas andiana (BOULENGER, 1896) (Colubridae: Dipsadinae) with considerations on its conservation status. Cisneros-Heredia, D. F. Russian Journal of Herpetology, St. Petersburg, 2007.
abstract   bibtex   
The distribution and natural history of Dipsas andiana (Boulenger, 1986), a little-known snake endemic to Ecuador, are revised, and new records are presented that extend its geographical and altitudinal range. A conservation status assessment indicates that D. andiana would classify for the IUCN category “Near Threatened (NT). ” The ecological distribution of the species is apparently related with seasonal forests of the West Ecuadorian zone, a recently recognized biogeographic area between the very humid Choco and the dry Tumbesian zone.
