Relationships between small terestrial elapids of Africa...

Posted by Jeremy on March 27, 2002 at 13:02:36:

Hello all,
I was wondering if any DNA work has been/is being done on some of the smaller species of elapid from Africa and if any relationships have been found between the genus Aspidelaps, Elapsoidea and Paranaja. I have long wondered how these guys fall into the grand scheme of things and have not been able to find any info about their relationships to other Elapids. If there is no concreate evidence which supports relationships between the later mentioned genus or them with other species of elapids then whats the most popular threoy as to date?

Well all, I appreciate any help that you guys can give me on this.

Thanks in advance!

Later,
Jeremy
