Agkistrodon bilineatus is a viperid snake with a broad geographic range in Mexico and Central America. Because this species has potent venom and is categorized as Near Threatened on the Red List of Threatened Species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature, understanding its habitat associations and distribution will contribute to both human health and conservation decisions internationally. Based on a comprehensive review of literature and museum records, in addition to our fieldwork, we built the first distribution model for A. bilineatus. Our presence-only consensus model exclusively incorporated contemporary records for the species (from 1980 to 2022, n = 36). The variables that contributed most strongly to the consensus model were: (a) distance to deciduous broadleaf forest, (b) human population density, (c) elevation, (d) precipitation of the wettest quarter, and (e) percentage of herbaceous cover. Of the high-probability distribution area for A. bilineatus predicted by the model, 72.9 % is in Mexico, 12.7 % in Honduras, 9.1 % in Guatemala and 5.2 % in El Salvador. Of the A. bilineatus historical records (those pre-1980), 92.3 % (36/39) were within the high-probability area predicted by the model, indicating either strong model performance or overprediction. Included in our modelling effort were the first two records for A. bilineatus from the State of Mexico, which increases the number of reptile species to 102 in this State. We briefly discuss the implications of our work for human medical treatment and improved conservation assessments for this species, which experiences many environmental threats.
Agkistrodon bilineatus tiene amplio rango de distribución en México y Centroamérica. Debido a que esta especie es venenosa y está clasificada como Casi Amenazada en la Lista Roja de la Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza, analizar la distribución de su hábitat contribuirá a la salud humana y a su conservación a nivel internacional. Basándonos en una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura, registros de museos y trabajo de campo, construimos el primer modelo de distribución para A. bilineatus. Nuestro modelo de solo presencia incorporó exclusivamente registros contemporáneos de la especie (1980 a 2022, n = 36). Las variables que contribuyeron mayormente al modelo fueron: (a) distancia al bosque caducifolio latifoliado, (b) densidad de población humana, (c) elevación, (d) precipitación del trimestre más húmedo y (e) porcentaje de cubertura herbácea. Del área de alta probabilidad de presencia de A. bilineatus, el 72,9 % se encuentra en México, 12,7 % en Honduras, 9,1 % en Guatemala y 5,2 % en El Salvador. De los registros históricos de A. bilineatus (anteriores a 1980), el 92,3 % (36/39) se ubicaron dentro del área de alta probabilidad predicha por el modelo, lo que indica un desempeño adecuado del modelo o una sobrepredicción. En los registros de A. bilineatus utilizados para modelar se incluyeron los dos primeros para el Estado de México, lo que aumenta el número de especies de reptiles a 102. Discutimos brevemente las implicaciones del trabajo para el tratamiento médico humano y la conservación de especie, que experimenta muchas amenazas ambientales.
