Eddie you got 4 of 10. At 40% we are going to have to send you to summer school! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif[/img] Make it last a little longer and not tell you which ones were right and wrong. Remember that #5 is a 3 part question.

Let me give this a try.
1. Black Mamba
2. Reticulated Python
3. Anaconda
4. King Cobra
5a. Gaboon Viper
b. Eastern Diamondback
c. Bushmaster
6. Eastern Diamondback
7. Eastern Diamondback
8. Eastern Indigo
9. I tried to break this down and the best I can come up with is some kind of water snake. I broke down the Latin terms and they mean roughly little snake and fish. I will continue to try to find this one.
10. Ophiciophobia is the fear of snakes.
Thanks for posting this, I learned a lot looking this stuff up! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

By the way...
I don't think "Ophidiophage" is a real word, but the latin root "Ophid" pertains to snakes and "Phage" is a clasification of bacteria. Hense, I just put it together.
