In layman's terms (since I know very little about taxonomy and don't comprehend much of the scientific articles on the subject), could someone please explain the current hypothesis (multiple hypotheses?) about how Atractaspis (stiletto snakes) evolved and what other current snakes are most closely related to them? They seem like pretty interesting snakes.
