Follow a link to our paper which provides as part of it a summary of the actual tremendous biodiversity within the 'colubrids'.

Here's another good site. It's got EVERY snake on it, as far as I can tell. There are usually some pictures too.

Yeah, its a good site but unfortunately Uetz has an anti-reptile as pet slant firmly on the front page. Its a regurgitation of the crap put out by the Smithsonian Society (widely accepted because they are the 'Smithsonian Society'... yeah... so?

You're right! I'd never looked at that front page, I just had a bookmark for the one I linked too. Sigh...

Though it's younger and not yet nearly as complete as the EMBL Reptile Database meretseger linked, the site linked below is also pretty useful.
