Hydrophis brookii —K.K.P. Lim & L.M. Chou, 1990: 55.—K.K.P. Lim & F.L.K. Lim, 1992: 149.—L.M. Chou et al., 1994: 105.— Iskandar & Colijn, 2001: 132.—K.P. Lim & F.L.K. Lim, 2002: 148.— Das, 2010: 319.—Wallach et al., 2014: 340.—Chan-ard et al., 2015: 274.— Leviton et al., 2018: 460.

Remarks. Sworder (1923) suspected the presence of H. brookii in Singapore because it occurs in waters off Peninsular Malaysia, but no records exist of this species from Singapore. Subsequent publications likely reference Sworder (1923).
