## Levila
Nad elavad Kesk-Ameerikas, Põhja-Ameerika lõunaosas ja Lõuna-Ameerika põhjaosas.

## Eluviis
Nad on üsna väikesed maod ja nende süljenäärmete nõre toimib saakloomadele mürgina. Inimestele on maod ohutud. Eluviis on neil valdavalt öine ja varjuv. Teadlased teavad nende paljunemise kohta üsna vähe, kuid arvatakse, et emasloomad munevad munad ja munadest koorunud maopojad on üsna vanemate moodi.
