Nomenclatural History
The species Ensifer fredii was originally described and validly published by Young 2003. Hördt et al. published an emended description of this species in 2020. Young established as a later homotypic synonym of (Scholla and Elkan 1984) Chen et al. 1988 emend. De Lajudie et al. 1994 in 2003. Martens et al. established this name as an earlier heterotypic synonym of (Chen et al. 1988) Young 2003 in 2008.
