Abbreviations include snout– vent length (SVL), tail length (TL), total length (TTL), snout scale ratio (SSR), anterior eye line (AE), frontal-parietal ratio (FPR), number of supralabials contacting the eye (SLE), number of infralabials contacting the anterior genial (ILG), and subcaudal ratio (SCR). Conditions that are relatively rare (occurring in <20% of specimens) are identified by a superscripted dagger symbol (†).

6. There is an obvious difficulty with the identification of towns whose names are so similar in writing and pronunciation, a problem compounded by local customs. It is, for example, quite possible that entire villages move, either to farm new areas or to escape bouts of illness or death (or due to spiritual concerns), with the new village at a different location given the same name as the old one. In this case, we have relied specifically on the collectors’ account (Marcus-van den Nieuwenhuizen 2009) as it matches the contemporary map. This situation is compounded by the presence in southern New

Pictured is the holotype of S. sutteri (NMBA 14872). (C) Gull wing +. The rostral scale is more visible than in (B). Pictured is the holotype of S. ayamaru sp. nov. (RMNH.RENA 31199). (D) Shallow V. The suture between rostral and internasals forms an obtuse angle (>> 90°) with straight or nearly straight rays (i.e., not curved into a gull-wing shape). Pictured is the holotype of S. florensis (ZMA 11080). (E) Deep V. The point of the rostral comes up far onto the dorsal surface of the head and lies between the nostrils. It forms an angle close to 90°. Pictured is a specimen of S. cucullatus (RMNH.RENA 47736). (F) U-shaped.

Pictured is the holotype of S. aruensis (MSNG 30186). (B) Gull wing. The rostral scale is barely visible, and its suture with the internasals forms slightly curved edges that come to a medial point. Pictured is the holotype of S. sutteri (NMBA 14872). (C) Gull wing +. The rostral scale is more visible than in (B). Pictured is the holotype of S. ayamaru sp. nov. (RMNH.RENA 31199). (D) Shallow V. The suture between rostral and internasals forms an obtuse angle (>> 90°) with straight or nearly straight rays (i.e., not curved into a gull-wing shape). Pictured is the holotype of S. florensis (ZMA 11080). (E) Deep V. The point of the rostral comes up far onto the dorsal surface of the head and lies between the nostrils. It forms an angle close to 90°. Pictured is a specimen of S. cucullatus (RMNH.RENA 47736). (F) U-shaped. The rostral does not have a point on the dorsal surface of the head but the edge of the suture is rounded.

Where a lack of available specimens required the use of unsexed material, this is indicated by the letter U. The character states of the rostral scale include: not visible when viewed from above, gull wing, gull wing +, V- shaped, or U- shaped (see text).
