The dorsum is ochre to brown in colour with a light cream, oblique streak on the neck that extends from the parietals and temporals to the venter posterior to the jaws. The snout is lighter in colour, with pale labial markings. No additional oblique streaks or markings occur on the neck or the anterior portion of the body. Elongate, creamyellow ocelli edged posteriorly with dark brown located on the scales of the fifth and sixth dorsal scale rows and are evenly spaced along the length of the body and the dorsal surface of the tail. Double, parallel, dark brown lateral stripes run the length of the body, beginning on the first ventral scale and extending to the vent. The first stripe results from the brown edging along the ventral scale margins, and a thin cream stripe separates the two darker ones. The venter is cream yellow, with dark brown speckling near the lateral margins of the ventrals. The underside of the tail is uniform creamyellow (

The oblique, light-coloured streak on the nape and neck is also not as prominent in the Langkawi specimens in comparison to the Thai specimen. In the Langkawi specimens, the colour of the venter also ranges from yellow to orange, with varying degrees of speckling along the margins of the ventral scales. The subcaudal region has a series of dark spots along the midline, creating a faint median line.
