Hi TN friends

Coluber is a genus of thin bodied, fast moving, colubrid snakes commonly known as racers. They are widespread around the world and vary greatly in habitat and behaviour. In the past, Coluber was a catch-all genus which included almost all snake species known at the time. Even the cobra was once classified as Coluber naja, but modern taxonomic work has reclassified all but the racers, of which there are 23 currently recognized species.
