Cara mengenalinya
- Adults are light to chocolate brown or yellowish, with no hood marks and no spots on the throat.1
- Juveniles are pale and faded, with dark and light cross-bands of about equal width around the body.1
- The hood is long and tapers gradually, unlike the rounder hood of some other cobras.1
- It has several dark bands under the throat.1
- It is never fully black, although some individuals can be quite dark.1
Sering dikelirukan dengan: The Caspian cobra is often confused with the Indian cobra, and the two live side by side in Pakistan and northern India. Indian cobras without a hood mark look similar.
