1 TECHNICALLY VENOMOUS REPTILES The species listed below can deliver venom that is not considered to be medically significant (venom commonly causing serious injury or death 1 ). Venomous species recommendations of PIJAC S BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES FOR REPTILE AND AMPHIBIAN SHOWS June 2015 DO NOT APPLY to the following: Genera Heterodon (hognose snakes), Hydrodynastes, Hypsiglena (night snakes), Heloderma (beaded lizards, Gila monster), Oxybelis (vine snakes), Boiga (cat snakes, tree snakes), Tantilla (Crown snakes, black-headed snakes, centipede snakes), Thamnophis (garter snakes, ribbon snakes), Trimorphodon (Lyre snakes). Click the genus for a list of species. Note that the list should not be considered a taxonomic reference and includes species from different sources; some are not uniformly recognized, some are considered synonyms, some are considered subspecies. We have not attempted to reconcile variations in taxonomic authorities. Genus Heterodon (hognose snakes) H. nasicus Western hog-nosed snake H. platirhinos Eastern hog-nosed snake H. simus Southern hog-nosed snake Genus Hydrodynastes H. bicinctus (Hermann s wáter Snake) H. gigas (False wáter cobra) H. melanogigas Genus Hypsiglena (night snakes) H. tanzeri H. torquata (California night Snake) Genus Heloderma (Beaded lizards, Gila monsters) H. alvarezi (Black beaded lizard) H. charlesbogerti (Montagua Valley beaded lizard) H. exasperatum (Rio Fuerte beaded lizard) H. horridum (Mexican beaded lizard) H. suspectum (Gila monster) Genus Oxybelis (Vine snakes) O. aeneus (Brown vine snake) 1 In rare instances, allergic reaction to venom may lead to serious medical consequences; otherwise, envenomation by the species listed would be inconsequential.
