Echidna atricaudata is a scientific name proposed by A.-M.-C. Duméril, Bibron & A.-H.-A. Duméril in 1854. It was used to describe a venomous viper found in the deserts of North Africa and the Middle East. However, this name has long since been considered a synonym of the following two species:
Cerastes cerastes: A venomous member of the genus Cerastes, native to the deserts of Northern Africa and parts of the Middle East. [e]- Cerastes vipera: A venomous member of the genus Cerastes, found in the deserts of North Africa and the Sinai Peninsula. [e]
