So is just about every other snake-woman myth, nevertheless this one seems to be the habitual "lilith" of monster kind, seeing that she seems to be famous for producing different kinds.

Very lillith-esque. Interesting, as Lamia in greek mythology was forced by Hera to eat her own children as punishment for mating with Zues

The point is that Echidna, from Greek mythology, was the literal mother of monsters. Different Greek writers recorded her as having different offspring, but she's been mentioned as the mother of Cerberus, the Sphinx, the Lernean Hydra (killed by Herakles/Hercules as one of his Twelve Labors), the Nemean Lion (same), the Caucasian Eagle (who ate Prometheus' liver every day)...So the connection with "giving birth to different varieties of monstergirl" is obvious.
