. Coloration in life is mentioned in parenthesis. Dorsum varies from pale to dark brown with or without lighter irregular marks or white spots scattered on dorsum, few individuals have several thin parallel longitudinal stripes or a middorsal band (i.e., longitudinal pattern); the interorbital band can be thin to broad, paler or darker than background and is absent in individuals with longitudinal pattern; interscapular blotch is often present. Flanks have pale oblique reticulations usually surrounded by dark stripes formed by rows of black flecks. Groins, anterior and posterior surfaces of thighs cream (orange, in most cases surrounded by yellow blotches; an individual has yellow groins (QCAZ 42502)). Dorsal surfaces of thighs with brown to black oblique stripes. Venter and throat coloration varies from cream to white (cream to white with different levels of transparency, with or without ill-defined yellow blotches) with or without black flecks. Iris is reddish to orangey copper with a faint medial horizontal darker streak and thin black reticulations; sclera varies from white to light blue.
