This species had long been considered to be a subspecies of the black-necked spitting cobra (Naja nigricollis), but morphological and genetic differences have led to its recognition as a separate species.[2] SubspeciesTwo subspecies are currently recognized under Naja nigricincta.[1] The nominate subspecies N. n. nigricincta, commonly known as the zebra spitting cobra or western barred spitting cobra, is given its name because of the dark crossbars that run the length of the snake's body. The subspecies N. n. woodi, commonly known as the black spitting cobra, is solid black and is found only in the desert areas of southern Africa. Both subspecies are smaller than N. nigricollis; with average adult lengths of less than {{convert|1.5|m|ft}}.[3][4]
DescriptionLike all other Naja species, this snake can flatten head and neck into a hood. The head and hood are uniformly dark brown or black. The venom of Naja nigricincta can cause massive hemorrhaging, necrosis and paralysis in bite victims. These snakes can also spit their venom, hitting their enemies with great accuracy and causing temporary or permanent blindness.[7] DistributionThis species is native to parts of southern Africa (southern Angola, Namibia, Botswana, Lesotho, and South Africa).[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{NRDB species |genus=Naja |species=nigricincta |accessdate=13 April 2017}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q3335274}}2. ^{{cite web|last=Wuster|first=Wolfgang|title=The phylogeny of cobras inferred from mitochondrial DNA sequences: Evolution of venom spitting and the phylogeography of the African spitting cobras (Serpentes: Elapidae: Naja nigricollis complex) |url=http://pages.bangor.ac.uk/~bss166/Publications/2007_Cobras_MPE.pdf |publisher=Bangor University |accessdate=14 February 2012}} 3. ^{{cite web|last=Mastenbroek|first=Richard|title=Black-neck Spitting Cobra|url=http://devenomized.com/libraries/elapids/Black-neck_Spitting.pdf|work=DEVENOMIZED|publisher=www.devenomized.com|accessdate=20 December 2011|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120425063515/http://devenomized.com/libraries/elapids/Black-neck_Spitting.pdf|archivedate=25 April 2012|df=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://animals.jrank.org/pages/3899/Cobras-Kraits-Sea-Snakes-Relatives-Elapidae-BLACK-NECKED-SPITTING-COBRA-Naja-nigricollis-SPECIES-ACCOUNTS.html|title=Kraits Cobras Sea Snakes and Relatives: Elapidae - Black-necked Spitting Cobra (Naja nigricollis): Species Accounts|accessdate=21 December 2011}} 5. ^{{cite journal|last=Bogert|first=CM|authorlink=Charles Mitchill Bogert|year=1940 |journal=Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History |title=Herpetological results of the Vernay Angola Expedition.
