"Dwarf" King Cobras

I was recently browsing KS venomous classifieds, and ERJ has an ad up there, that among many other very cool snakes (King Browns, Eastern Browns), has "dwarf" king cobras for sale...supposedly an island form that doesn't grow larger than 10ft...but the most amazing claim of all was that this form was primarily a rodent eater in the wild!

Just wondering if anyone has heard of this variety of O. hannah (I know Ophiophagus is in the process of being divided into more than one species), and has any further information on them (like exactly what island[s] they are from).

Here's a pic of the "dwarf" from the ad:
