The Spanish cobra (Naja iberica) is an extinct species of snake that lived in Spain during the Miocene.
Description[]
Naja iberica was named by Szyndlar in 1985 from the holotype blasisphenoid MNCN Alg. I-31, paratype blasisphenoid Alg. I-32 and referred material; 4 right and 5 left maxillae, 5 isolate venom fangs, a left septomaxilla, both palatines, a fragmented right pterygoid, 2 right and 1 left compound bones. 3 right and 2 left dentaries, 2 left quadrates, 1 ?left squamosal, 2 fragmented parietals, 6 basioccipitals, a left prootic, 2 left exoccipitals, a supraoccipital, 25 ribs and "several hundred" vertebrae. Though typical of Naja, it differs through: no basiparasphenoid crests, Vidian canal exiting the basiparasphenoid on the internal surface, the vestibular window between the prootic and exoccipital, occipital crest terminating before the parotic process and two non-venomous teeth on the maxilla.
