In the new ratsnake classification, the genus name of the Aesculipean is Zamenis. Which is one of the less-silly sounding ones if you can believe it. They're unfortunately tough to get in the States, I've been looking for 4 years and just barely have some leads. I just consider myself lucky I found javelin sand boas...

Other than that I don't have any other info, although if no one posts I can dig out my ratsnake book for you.

"The serpent crams itself with animal life that is often warm and vibrant, to prolong an existence in which we detect no joy and no emotion. It reveals the depth to which evolution can sink when it takes the downward path and strips animals to the irreducible minimum able to perpetuate a predatory life in its naked horror."
