- Typical adults are 1.2 to 1.5 metres long.1
Wɔtaa fa no sɛ: It is sometimes confused with the monocled cobra (Naja kaouthia). The Chinese cobra has lower counts of ventral and subcaudal scales, which are the belly and tail scales. Sex should be taken into account when comparing these counts.1

The Chinese cobra is a highly venomous member of the true cobras. Local symptoms at the bite include darkening of the wound, redness, swelling, pain and numbness, and blisters and necrosis (death of tissue) almost always follow. Necrosis can last for years after the person has otherwise recovered. Whole-body symptoms can include chest discomfort, fever, sore throat, difficulty swallowing, loss of voice, weak limbs, unsteady walking, lockjaw and difficulty breathing.1

Necrosis from a bite can continue for many years after the victim has recovered in general.1
A snake kept at a snake farm gave an average venom yield of about 250.8 mg, of which about 80 mg was dry weight.1
Its fangs are always erect and sit at the front of the upper jaw, as in other elapid snakes.1
