Kraits of the genus    Bungarus    Daudin 1803 are widely known venomous snakes distributed from Iran to China and Indonesia. Here, we use a combination of mitochondrial DNA sequence data and morphological data to describe a new species from Yingjiang County, Yunnan Province, China:    Bungarus   suzhenae    sp. nov . Phylogenetically, this species forms a monophyletic lineage sister to the    Bungarus   candidus   /multicinctus   /wanghaotingi    complex based on cyt  b  and  ND4  genes but forms a sister species pair with the species    B.   magnimaculatus    Wall &amp; Evans, 1901 based on  COI  gene fragments. Morphologically,    B.   suzhenae    sp. nov . is similar to the    B.   candidus   /multicinctus   /wanghaotingi    complex but differs from these taxa by a combination of dental morphology, squamation, coloration pattern, as well as hemipenial morphology. A detailed description of the cranial osteology of the new species is given based on micro-CT tomography images. We revised the morphological characters of    B.   candidus   /multicinctus   /wanghaotingi    complex and verified the validity of three species in this complex. The distribution of these species was revised; the records of    B.   candidus    in China should be attributed to    B.   wanghaotingi   . We also provide an updated key to species of    Bungarus   .

Multiple lines of evidence reveal a new species of Krait ( Squamata , Elapidae , Bungarus ) from Southwestern China and Northern Myanmar
