morphotype). Body scalation heterogeneous, dorsal matrix scales small, smaller than ventral scales, irregularly intermixed by enlarged scales, sometimes forming distinct transverse scale rows. Enlarged scales keeled, most concentrated at the vertebrate. Vertebral zone covered by enlarged scales intermixed with smaller matrix scales, not separated by distinct rows of enlarged scales from the lateral parts of the body. Body scales are arranged in 88–126 (x = 103.8, n = 23) rows around midbody and 52–85 (x = 66.5, n = 23) longitudinal rows along the vertebrae. Ventral scales smooth, smaller than the enlarged dorsal scales, but larger than the matrix scales, in 77–92 (x = 83.3, n = 23) longitudinal rows. Gular scales small, smooth to feebly keeled, but erect and about the same size as the ventral scales. Males with one to three continuous rows (x = 2.0, n = 22) with a total number of 7–37 (x = 19.0, n = 22) precloacal pores, lacking in females. Dorsal scales of the basal part of the tail larger than those on the other parts of the tail, often forming a distinct patch of thick and swollen scales.
