Monocled cobras tend to have more than one cuneate scale on each side.

Since then, several monocled cobras were described under different scientific names:

In Thailand, the monocled cobra is responsible for the majority of snakebite fatalities.

Monocled cobras are harvested for the skin trade, however, collection from the wild is minimal and not likely to be causing significant population declines.

Monocled cobras can adapt to a range of habitats, from natural to anthropogenically impacted environments.

Several varieties of monocled cobras were described under the binomial Naja tripudians between 1895 and 1913.

The monocled cobra causes the highest fatality due to snake venom poisoning in Thailand.

This species should not be confused with the Monocled cobra (Naja kaouthia), which has similar habitat, size and appearance.

Monocled cobras are non-spitting.

The monocled cobra has an O-shaped, or monocellate hood pattern, unlike that of the Indian cobra.

The Chinese cobra is sometimes confused with the Monocled cobra (Naja kaouthia).

The monocled cobra (Naja kaouthia) is a cobra species, which is widespread across central and southern Asia.

Other snakes found here include the Indian Cobra, Monocled Cobra, Russell's Viper, and the Common Krait.

In 1834, John Edward Gray published Thomas Hardwicke's first illustration of a monocled cobra under the trinomial Naja tripudians var.

Aqueous extracts of the roots of the plant have shown significant neutralizing effects in the lethality of the venom of the monocled cobra (Naja Kaouthia).

In 1940, Malcolm Arthur Smith classified the monocled cobra as a subspecies of the spectacled cobra under the trinomial Naja naja kaouthia.

In 1831, Lesson first described the monocled cobra as a beautiful snake that is well distinct from the spectacled cobra, with 188 ventral scales and 53 pairs of caudal scales.

Monocled cobras are distributed from India in the west through to China, Vietnam and Cambodia, also occurs in the Malay Peninsula and is native to Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar, Laos, Nepal, and Thailand.

Among the four CRISPs isolated from the Monocled Cobra (Naja kaouthia) and the three from the Egyptian Cobra (Naja haje), ion channel activity occurred by blocking of cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels.

This species should not be confused with the Monocled cobra (Naja kaouthia), which has similar habitat, size and appearance.

The Chinese cobra is sometimes confused with the Monocled cobra (Naja kaouthia).

The monocled cobra (Naja kaouthia) is a cobra species, which is widespread across central and southern Asia.

Some collaboration between males and females has been reported in Naja naja x Naja kaouthia - hybrids.

The Naja Kaouthia venom is a member of the snake three-finger toxin family in the subfamily type II alpha-neurotoxin.
