Summary

Description
English: Schematic comparison between the venom fangs of spitting cobras (to the right) and non-spitting cobras (to the left). First row: Section of the whole fang in the saggital plane. Second row: Horizontal section through the fang at the height of the discharge orifice. Third row: Frontal view of the discharge orifices.

Drawn and schematized after:

  • Berthé RA (2011): Spitting behaviour and fang morphology of spitting cobras. PhD dissertation Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms Universität Bonn.
  • Bogert CM (1943): Dentitional phenomena in cobras and other elapids with notes on adaptive modifications of fangs. Bulletin American Museum of Natural History 81:285–363
  • Wüster W, Thorpe RS (1992): Dentitional phenomena in cobras revisited: Spitting and fang structure in the asiatic species of Naja (Serpentes: Elapidae). Herpetologica 48:424–434
  • Young BA, Dunlap K, Koenig K, Singer M (2004): The buccal buckle: the functional morphology of venom spitting in cobras. The Journal of Experimental Biology 207: 3483-3494.

This biology image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Cobrateeth.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
