). Dorsal pholidosis homogenous with more or less uniform, irregularly sized and shaped small granular scales, complete absence of enlarged dorsal tubercles at the midbody. First supralabial is in contact with nasal, but not in contact with nostril. Two well-developed pairs of postmentals, inner pair slightly larger than the outer pair, and in contact with the outer pair. Ventrolateral folds prominent at the neck and axilla, 45–48 scale rows across venter. Enlarged scansors on all digits; 12–13 (manus) and 9–14 (pes) divided scansors beneath first digit, and 12–16 (manus) and 13–17 (pes) beneath the fourth digit; 22–25 femoral pores on each thigh, separated by nine to ten poreless scales in males. Tail depressed, oval in transverse section without a median dorsal furrow; scales on the tail large and imbricate, slightly larger than dorsals of body; ventral scales of tail large and imbricate, separated with medial row of transversely enlarged and regularly arranged subcaudal plates.

Dorsum light to wheat brown with four darker thick wavy bands. The transverse bands are discrete and M-shaped, with brown mid-portions bordered by a darker brown mottling, and then a lighter brown outline, which is thicker on the posterior part of the band. Very indistinct mid-vertebral line is seen only on the trunk. Nape with a small lighter broken transverse band composed of light grey-brown blotches. On either side of the nape, light grey-brown blotches extend from the postorbital region to the first transverse band near the shoulder. Crown with numerous small light greyish brown irregular mottles. Labial scales and infra-orbital regions are pale brown with white mottling. Limbs light to wheatish brown with darker mottling extending up to the digits. Digits with pale greyish-brown bands interspersed by darker brown. A lighter discontinuous transverse band is present on the tail base. Tail similar in colour and pattern to dorsum of the body, interspersed by thick darker brown bands, with a small black-brown blotch at the posterior spur of each band.

The general colouration of the dorsum is light brown, and the sides of the trunk are paler. Bands and markings on the dorsum, forelimbs, and hindlimbs are slightly faded compared to colouration in life, but are still distinct in most specimens.
