The Many-banded krait (''Bungarus multicinctus''), also known as the Taiwanese krait or the Chinese krait, is a highly venomous species of elapid snake found in throughout much of central and southern China and Southeast Asia. The species was first described by the scientist Edward Blyth in 1861. This species has two known subspecies, the nominate ''Bungarus multicinctus multicinctus'', and ''Bungarus multicinctus wanghaotingi''. The many-banded krait mostly inhabits marshy areas throughout its geographical distribution, though it does occur in other habitat types. ==Etymology== Since the species' description by zoologist and pharmacist, Edward Blyth in 1861,〔 ''Bungarus multicinctus'' has been the binomial of the species. The generic name, ''Bungarus'', is a Latinisation of Telegu ''baṅgāru'', "krait." The specific name ''multicinctus'' is derived from the Latin ''multi-'', combining form of ''multus'', "much, many", and Latin ''cinctus'', past participle of ''cingere'', "to encircle" - as in a "band". The full species name (''Bungarus multicinctus'') thus literally means "banded krait". The common name "krait" is from Hindi (करैत karait), which is perhaps ultimately derived from the Sanskrit word (काल kāla), which means "black".
