I. (1903), p. 167.
8 98 A NATURALIST IN BORNEO to be inconvenienced in the slightest degree thereby, he believes that the fish-spines are eliminated from the body of the snakes by passing simply through the wall of the alimentary canal and through the body-wall to the exterior. It is difficult to see how the spines of such a fish as Chorinemus toloo could pass out of the snake's body in any other way. The same naturalist confirms an observation that I have made more than once, that Sea-Snakes, ...when irritated, do not hiss but utter a low gurgling noise.
It is of interest to find that in each of the three sections of Colubridce there is one sub-family of aquatic snakes. In the section Aglypha we have the Acrochord- ince, powerful crushing snakes, living in the sea near the shore and in rivers ; in the section Opisthoglypha we have the Homolopsince, some species of which are commonly found in mud on the banks of rivers, others in the rivers themselves, others on the sea-shore ; and in the section Proteroglypha, the Hydrophiince, which in their structure are far better adapted to an essentially marine life than either of the other two sub-families.
