Suture between prefrontals entirely pigmented by brown blotch in UFMT-R 1933. White nuchal collar two and a half to three dorsals long (MCP 11372, MCP 14524 and UFMT-R 1933) or two to three dorsals long (MCP 14525). Black nuchal collar vestigial in MCP 11372, MCP 14524 and MCP 14525 and apparent in UFMT 1933. First dorsal stripe, vertebral stripe and fifth dorsal stripe brown; paravertebral stripes light brown and less distinct than remaining dorsal stripes in all specimens. Caudal band extends for length of 7-10 scales dorsally and 3-8 subcaudals. In MCP 11372 fourth supralabial on each side entirely clear; it has a narrow, vestigial band of melanophores on the anterior portion of the terminal scale (dorsally) and small black blotches can be observed on its 22nd, 24th, 25th, 26th and 27th pair of subcaudal scales. Terminal scale with band of melanophores dorsolaterally and entirely clear ventrally in MCP 11372, MCP 14524 and UFMT-R 1933.

Basal region on sulcate side bears numerous spines of similar size. Several moderate-sized spines present on lateral region of hemipenial body in its absulcate side. Sulcus spermaticus bifurcates about two-thirds before end of organ; branches - which extend centrolineally - reach distal tip of lobe. Basal region on absulcate side also bears numerous spines of similar size, but these are abruptly replaced by two larger spines in middle region of hemipenial body, larger than those disposed on lateral region of hemipenial body. Capitulum confined to sulcate side. Distal region of absulcate side bears transverse papillate flounces, without calyces, whereas a small number of papillae are concentrated above flounces.
