From Typhoon Dim-sum to frogs and snakes: Asia’s cyclones feature unusual names

A recent study has identified four distinct King Cobra species globally. This reclassification follows earlier research suggesting separate lineages existed.

Its genus name was later changed due to a conflict with butterfly classification.
