We present a succinct time line that provides: a) An historical view of the genus. While we lay out the history of each species in the accounts, we think a quick overview of the genus by species is in order. The boas of the genus Chilabothrus (formerly Epicrates) have been described, named, redescribed and renamed over the last three centuries. ![]() ![]() Despite close proximity and suitable habitats, the Genus Chilabothrus is absent from the newer Lesser Antilles or from mainland South-, Middle- or North America. The Genus Chilabothrus is distributed over the older Greater Antillean Islands (Cuba, Hispaniola, Jamaica, Puerto Rico) and Lucayan Achipelago of the West Indies. They were commonly called the Caribby-Islands, Caribbies, the Cannibal Islands ( named after the ancient inhabitants) and the Camercane Islands (Davies, 1666). The Greek ‘αντι, meaning opposite and Isles or Iles. Historically, the word Antilles read Ant-Isles. There are several names that have been attributed to the Caribbean or Antilles. No author has ever compared specimens of all Antillean taxa, and existing diagnoses of Antillean forms (with the exception of exsul) are at best casual. The systematics of Antillean Epicrates (now Chilabothrus) are still in a chaotic state.
