Variable in colour and pattern; dorsal ground colour may be pale whitish grey to dark greyish brown. Tail colour is typically a continuation of dorsal body colour, but in some specimens the tail is dull to bright orange, sometimes only beneath tail. Dorsal patterning variable; a vertebral stripe and/or paravertebral stripes may be either absent, form faint broken stripes, or continuous stripes with either bold or indistinct edges. If present, these stripes extend from nape to the tail base, becoming broken lines and dots on tail. Pale dorsolateral stripe is usually either absent or faint and narrow (occasionally bold and broad). Black upper lateral stripe is bold and wide, bordered below by a narrower white midlateral stripe.

However, it is unlikely to qualify for listing given it does not meet other conditions of Criterion 2; it occurs at ≥ 10 locations, is not severely fragmented, and there is no evidence of continuing decline or extreme fluctuations in its distribution or populations. Further sampling across the species’ range is required to further clarify the AOO, which is likely to be higher than current records suggest.
