When viewed laterally, thick snout with little slope and squarish tip; when viewed from above, the sides of the snout slope minimally and end in a wide square tip. Canthus rostralis not defined; loreal region sloping and moderately concave. Rounded medial projection (synthesis of mentomeckelian bones) on lower jaw that matches notch on upper jaw. Nostrils directed upwards; nares with moderate rim. Anterior corner of eye moderately covered by flap of skin; at dorsal terminus the skin overlaps the skin of the brow above the eye. Posterior edge of brow projects slightly over skin on side of head. Tympana covered by skin and parotoid glands. Tongue oval and elongate. Maxillary and vomerine teeth absent. Frontoparietal fontanelle narrowly exposed (

The dorsal surface is a pale dull brown, with irregularly connected dark brown and red blotches. A vertebral row of crimson tubercles runs from snout to cloaca, with scattered red tubercles on the eye, hind limbs, and glands. Scattered white tubercles occur above the mouth on the side of the snout. The parotoid glands are suffused with metallic gold (Fig. 7). Ventral and femoral coloration is unknown. Males have a darkly pigmented chin.
