| description | The objective of this study was to determine the richness of snake species associated to an urban area, the University of Cordoba in the city of Montería, Colombia. The study was conducted between January 2011 and October 2014. Ten species distributed in ten genera and four families were recorded, the family Dipsadidae was represented with 60%, Boidae and Leptotyphlopidae with 10 % each one. The progressive increase of construction activities and suitability of land for crops have contributed to the loss of habitat for many species of snakes. In addition, in this locality these reptiles have been affected by the fear of the administrative personnel and the workers of the University, due to the lack of knowledge on the ecology and the behavior of these organisms. |

The objective of this study was to determine the richness of snake species associated to an urban area, the University of Cordoba in the city of Montería, Colombia.

Se determinó la riqueza de serpientes asociada a un área urbana, la Universidad de Córdoba ubicada en la ciudad de Montería, departamento de Córdoba, Colombia. Entre enero de 2011 y noviembre de 2014, se aplicaron capturas a través de trampas de caída, búsqueda libre restringida por tiempo y búsqueda libre. Se registraron diez especies, distribuidas en diez géneros y cuatro familias, la familia Didapsidae fue la mejor representada con el 60% de las especies reportadas, seguida de la familia Colubridae 20%, Boidae y Leptotyphlopidae con el 10% cada una. Los ofidios en esta localidad se han visto afectados por el temor del personal administrativo y los trabajadores de la Universidad, debido a la falta de conocimiento sobre la ecología y el comportamiento de las serpientes.
