 Amphibious sea kraits are characterized by one feature that is an obvious aid in swimming, a broad paddle-like tail. It shares other features such as broad belly scales and lateral nostrils with its terrestrial relatives. The life history and ecology of the brown-lipped sea krait (Laticauda laticaudata) and the yellow-lipped sea krait (Laticauda colubrina) have been studied in New Caledonia (Saint Girons, 1964), Fiji (Guinea, 1994; Shetty, 2000) and Borneo (Voris & Voris, 1995).
