One more chip for my jigsaw puzzle. Dr. Patrick Russell, after whom the deadly snake, Russell's Viper is named, worked as a naturalist in Vizagapatam around 1781 and did most of his reptilian research in the hills of the Coromandel coast. He was also a physician and icthyologist -- a general man of science in short.
