The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature has conserved the specific name of Dasypeltis atra Sternfeld, 1912 for a species of colubrid snake from central and eastern Africa by giving it precedence over its senior subjective synonym Dasypeltis lineolata Peters, 1878, whenever the two are considered synonyms.
