This online guide to the snakes of Florida is based on work initially led by former collection manager Dr. Kenneth L. Krysko and Curator Emeritus Dr. F. Wayne King.
The individual species accounts have been updated, revised, and expanded by collection manager Dr. Coleman Sheehy with additional input from Curator Dr. David C. Blackburn.
The illustrations of color patterns are updated versions of those first produced by Curator Emeritus Dr. F. Wayne King.
