內陸太攀蛇（學名：Oxyuranns microlepidotus），又名細鱗太攀蛇、西陸太攀蛇、內陸盾尖吻蛇，屬眼鏡蛇科太攀蛇屬，是澳大利亞中東部半乾旱地區的特有蛇種。[2]居住在這些地區的土著澳大利亞人稱其為「Dandarabilla」。[3][4]內陸太攀蛇率先於1879年由弗雷德里克·麥科伊（Frederick McCoy）發現並描述，之後又於1882年由威廉·約翰·麥克萊（William John Macleay）發現並描述，但在接下來的90年中，內陸太攀蛇對科學界來說是一個神秘的物種。由於找不到更多的標本，對於該物種的認知直到1972年被重新發現之前基本停滯。[5]

In there, all the toxicity testing results were lumped in together, regardless of the mode of testing (e.g. subcutaneous vs. intramuscular vs intravenous vs intraperitoneal). As the mode can influence the relative number, venoms can only be compared within a mode. Otherwise, its apples and rocks." Venomdoc forums, Retrieved February 25, 2015
