====Informal or popular terminology==== Common names for the various types of snake dentition originate largely from older literature, but still are encountered in informal publications. Aglyphous snakes are commonly called '''fangless'''; opisthoglyphous snakes '''rear-fanged''' or '''back-fanged'''; and both proteroglyphous and solenoglyphous snakes are referred to as '''front-fanged'''.<ref name="Wrose">Rose, Walter; The reptiles and amphibians of southern Africa; Pub: Maskew Miller, 1950</ref><ref>Engelmann, Wolf-Eberhard.
