Chris, probably not the best example of parallelism, but I've been thinking about convergence and that doesn't seem to fit either.
I can't remember any examples of convergence comparing snakes to other snakes, but then I'm not very knowledgeable about this term. Your post helps. I was looking at the "blue" color and the behaviors in their habitat, mostly, trying to show a relationship there. The eye stripe was incidental. I think the fact that the snakes are fairly, closely related makes a difference here. I'll work on it some more later.
Work calls...
