Brown banded cobra
The brown banded cobra is a medium-sized venomous snake found in Southeast Asia. Until 2022 scientists thought it was part of the monocled cobra's species, but genetic studies showed it is its own species. It is an aggressive snake and was a major cause of snakebites in one part of southwestern China.1
