Abstract

Zmije su kroz svoju evoluciju razvile niz prilagodbi za savladavanje plijena. Neke su evoluirale mehanizam za trovanje različitog stupnja složenosti i time postale životinje otrovnice, ali ne i otrovne. Cilj ovog seminara je razjasniti neke pojmove vezane uz mehanizam za trovanje zmija otrovnica, dati kratki pregled njegovih varijacija kod zmija otrovnica svijeta i ukazati na neke probleme koji kompliciraju tematiku.

Abstract (english)

Snakes have developed through their evolution a wide range of adaptations for overcoming their prey. Some evolved a venom apparatus, with varying complexity, and with that became venomous animals, but not poisonous. The goal of this seminar is to explain some of the terms associated with snake venom apparatuses, give a brief overview of its variations in snakes of the world and point out some of the problems complicating the subject at hand.
