A Super Swallower

A sure way around the problem of subduing live flesh is to catch it young enough. The two-foot African snake Dasypeltis scaber, shown here, has carried this solution to the ultimate point of eating nothing but bird’s eggs, and has become marvelously specialized for this task. Its teeth have dwindled to nubbins which are useful only for gripping a smooth egg. Its jaws are loosely connected to its skull by two swiveling bones which can be dropped down to give Dasypeltis the most stretchy mouth of any snake. In its throat are sharp projections sticking down from the backbone and used to rip open eggshells.

Postcranial Skeleton

The vertebrae are the first bones encountered beyond the skull. The first vertebra is the atlas, so named because it must bear the skull. The second bone is the axis, the pivot point which allows free movement of the head and neck. The hyoid apparatus is in the throat, roughly beneath and in front of these first vertebrae. It may be connected with a vertebra, or it may be a free unit. It protects the windpipe.

The body of the vertebra is called a centrum; the space between centra is the intercentrum. The vertebral centra may be one of two types, either amphicoelous (biconcave) or procoelus (concave anteriorly, convex posteriorly). The backbone runs the entire length of the tail, but should this member be lost, the replacement will be forever devoid of true vertebrae. Along the tail section, when true vertebrae are present, one can locate the plane of autotomy, which is usually a cartilaginous plate before or behind the transverse process of the vertebra.

The epidermal coat of lizards is a scaly layer, the scales more than usually overlapping. Because the animals are “pokilothermic” and because they do need not be kept moist, the skin is remarkably devoid of glands. In some species they may be a most fine coat of bead like bony pieces just beneath the skin organ. These are called osteoderms. They may well be fused to the bones of the head. making the skin immovable.

The scales themselves may be smooth or “kneeled”. If they are smooth they will feel like smooth fine leather and even appear to be in state of almost being polished. If they are “keeled” , they indeed may be rough or spiny depending on the species themselves and the specifics of that species.
