Bungarus walli

Bungarus walli, the Wall's krait,[a] is a species of krait, a venomous elapid snake found in northern India, Bangladesh, Nepal,[1][3] and Bhutan.

[1] It has previously been treated as a subspecies of Bungarus sindanus (also known as the Sind krait), but is now considered a valid species.

[1][3] This taxon is named in honour of British herpetologist Frank Wall, who named the taxon after himself, admitting that it was a "breach of ethics" to do so.

[2][4] Bungarus walli occurs in forests, agricultural fields, and rural and urbanized areas.
