What kind of snake was in the speckled band story of Sherlock Holmes?

Watson quotes Holmes as saying: "It is a swamp adder! the deadliest snake in India." However, There is no such thing as a 'swamp adder' and there are no adders of any kind in India. In addition, snakes cannot hear sounds they only feel vibrations with very sensitive organs.It has been speculated that what Holmes actually said was: "it is a samp-aderm, the deadliest skink in India." A skink is actually a lizard that might be able to climb and descend a rope and hear a whistle.

in the adventure of the speckled band story what is the speckled band?

"It is a swamp adder!" cried Holmes - "the deadliest snake in India." Watson recorded this sentence many years after the actual events for we learn of the secrecy kept until the untimely death of Holmes' client. First of all, there is no such thing as a swamp adder, and India has no adders. Second, have you ever seen a snake slither up a rope or down one for that matter? Another fact of note, snakes are deaf, so the whistle would have been useless, and there is also the problem of getting through the ventilator cover. There has been much speculation about what this "swamp adder" may have been, but one possibility is a hybrid reptile combining a lizard and a snake. What Holmes may have actually said was: "It is a samp-aderm, the deadliest skink in India." This theory was first put forward by Laurence M. Klauber in a 1948 issue of 'The Baker Street Journal' in an article titled 'The Truth about the Speckled Band.'
