Clelia, pseudoboa, spilotes, and drys (and others) are all referred to as cribos. A cribo/creebo is nothing more than West Indian slang for "snake". The first "cribo" I ever bought was a mussurana
If you were to go to Grenada or most other Caribbean islands that have large colubrids and asked to see a cribo, God only knows what species they'd show you.
The term comes from Africa and made its way to the Americas with the slave trade.
So the term is not exclusive to drys.
