Snakes have a great ecological importance, interacting to others species and feeding on some that are considered plagues and illness reservoirs. The present work aims to list the snake species present in the Ituiutaba Municipality. The data were collected through previously preserved specimens deposited in zoological collections, visual searches and occasional encounters. Fifty six snakes were analyzed, and classified in twenty three species, distributed in five families. The richness found is relatively high, considering the elevated degree of modification in the natural environment, where only 15% remain intact. Of analyzed individuals, several have substantial medical and pharmacological importance, mainly the genera Bothrops and Crotalus. The present study contribute with the knowledge about the Cerrado snake assemblage, and emphasizes the importance of knowing the local fauna, mostly in environments with anthropic action, where there evident habitat loss.
