Thank you for your comment and sharp eyes – that one slipped past me somehow.

Did you have in mind one of the many subspecies of Naja naja? From the angle of the photo it is a bit difficult for me to be sure, but there are so many races that it very well could be. I am wondering also if perhaps it could be a red spitting cobra, N. pallida? I’ll see if I can locate some background information on the photo and will get back to you.

Your interest is much appreciated; I look forward to your future correspondence.

Best, Frank
