Overview

Systematic review identifies 141 snake species in Bangladesh, suggesting improved conservation for diverse habitats.

Key Points

  • Identifying 89 confirmed snake species in Bangladesh contributes to understanding herpetofauna diversity.
  • Among the species, 70% are non-venomous while 30% are venomous, highlighting safety concerns for residents.
  • Using kernel density estimation, the study maps distribution patterns across various ecosystems in Bangladesh.
  • The findings emphasize the need for ongoing research and conservation to protect snakes from potential extinction.
