Paleoclimatology, paleogeography, and the evolution and distribution of sea kraits (Serpentes; Elapidae; Laticauda)
Herpetological Monographs, 31, 1–17.
TL;DR:
Two major factors—paleogeographic alteration of the configuration of land and sea, and the directions of sea currents, past and present—provide an explanation of how these amphibious snakes originated from a terrestrial Asian elapid ancestor and subsequently generated the venomous Australian land snakes and their derivatives the true sea snakes.
