摘要：

The amino acid compositions given for the neurotoxin subunits illustrate the strong similarity between paradoxin and taipoxin. The fierce snake and the taipan appear to be very closely related with regard to the types of proteins present. The data presented support the classification of the 2 snakes as congeneric. The name O. microlepidotus would seem appropriate.
