Two light-brown lines run posteromedially from the eyes, approaching one another toward the midline but ending in the suprascapular region. These lines merge anterolaterally at the posterior of the eye with the lighter flank colouration, extending onto the lateral portions of the head. A whitish line runs from the posterior edge of the eye to the corner of the mouth. The arms are dorsally light brown flecked with black. The legs are dorsally light brown, with one dark crossband on the thigh, two on the shank—the proximal of which is less distinct than the distal—one on the tarsus, one on the metatarsals, and some black spots on the toes.

Its colouration is starkly different, however. Dorsally, it is uniformly an earthy brown. Crossbands on the shanks are faint but present, as is the light line running between the corner of the mouth and the posterior of the eye. Based on colour photographs (
