-shaped marking that is reddish medially, covering the posteromedial part of the frontals, posterior part of supraoculars, most of parietals, dorsal margin of upper temporals, posteriorly extended, forming two thick black-edged reddish brown stripes on nape. Lateral surface of head yellow, a few small black spots dispersed on supralabials (2, 4 and 5 on left and 2, 3 and 4 on right) and subpreocular, a distinct scutellate black labial spot on the junction of the 2, 3 and right subpreocular (absent on left). Ventral surface of head consistently light-yellow, a few small black spots dispersed on the mental, infralabials, and anterior chin shields. An irregular spot occurs on the posterior edge of the junction of two anterior chin shields. Mouth lining is pale-heather and tongue is black.

Two rows of smaller, black-edged reddish brown blotches on both side of the larger mid-body blotches, alternating with the mid-body blotches, each blotch covers 2-4 dorsal scales and separated from ventral scales by two rows of the dorsolateral scales.

sp. nov., the color pattern varies considerably between the juvenile and the adult: In adult one (SYS r002534, holotype), the color of the rostral, top and side of head, and chin, as well as dorsal and ventral sections of body are consistently light-yellow, whereas in the juvenile (IVPP OV 2721), the color of head and dorsal body is greyish to olive-green; the ventral scales and subcaudal scales are oyster white, with irregular greyish black spots. The juvenile has a similar dorsal pattern as the adult.

The parietal is blunt and rounded, lacks a lateral crest on each side. The prefrontal is slender, somewhat rectangular. The anterolateral process is blunt. The anterior margin of frontal presents as trapezium-shaped. The lateral margin slightly concave. The postorbital is crescent-shaped, the anterodorsal process does not contact the frontal. The ventral process of postorbital is tapered, not furcated. The supraoccipital is rectangular and compressed, bearing a trifurcated dorsal ridge. The basisphenoid is wide and flat, with no conspicuous ridges on the ventral surface. The rostrum of parasphenoid is not divided. The angular surface between the basisphenoid and basioccipital is smooth. The columella is stubby, the shaft of columella quite short, approximately 1.2 times as length as the diameter of foot plate. The foramina for maxillary branch of trigeminal (f5b) and mandibular branch of trigeminal (f5c) nerves are oval shaped, not reaching the margin of prootic. The f5b is approximately 1/2 the width of f5c.

The maxilla is slender.

The anterior five MT have inconspicuous posterolateral ridges, while the posterior six teeth have a sharply edged ridge on their posterior margin (which could be also described as: the posterolateral ridge gradually moved posteriorly by the MT row, forming a sharp cutting edge on the posterior MT), forming blade-like teeth. The MT increase in size posteriorly, the posterior-most two being the largest, not separated from the anterior teeth by a diastema. The cutting edges of the posterior four MT slightly posteriorly convex, rendering them kukri shaped.

The choanal process of palatine (chp) forms a right triangular in dorsal view. The anterolateral margin of the maxillary process forms an approximate 30° angle with the medial line. The posterior margin of maxillary process is perpendicular to the medial line and collinear with the anterior margin of the choanal process. The pterygoid is slender and lanceolate in shape, 1.8 times the length of palatine, bearing 12 solid teeth (with one row of replacement teeth on the labial side). The ectopterygoid process and the medial transverse process of pterygoid are very small and difficult to see. The ectopterygoid is horizontally expanded, and outwardly curved in dorsal view. The labial furcula of ectopterygoid is oval, and distinct from the lingual process. The medial furcula (medial process) is elongate and spiculate, slightly curved ventrally.</paragraph>

The mandible is slender and moderately curved. The supratemporal is flat and slender, fusiform, and the anteroventral margin is slightly angulated upward. The quadrate is triangulated in lateral view, and approximately the same length as supratemporal. The supratemporal angular surface of the quadrate is expanded, elongated and oval shaped. The prearticular crest (pcr) of the compound bone is prominent while the surangular crest (sac) is absent. The angular is slender and triangular. The splenial is triangular, coracoid shaped and shorter than angular. The dental bone bears 13 teeth, decreasing in size at the fifth tooth, with one or two rows of replacement teeth on the lingual side. The posterior tip of dorsal process of dentary extends farther posteriorly than the ventral process. The largest dentary nutrient foramen is elongated-oval shaped and lies below the seventh tooth.
