Dorsal pattern broadly consists of a series of pale streak or spots on either side of the dorsal midline, a series of small, irregular spots along the mid-lateral line, and a background pattern heavily marked with black mottling and smudging. The nape marking is a prominent V- or Y-shaped marking that is broken in the middle. The V-shaped marking consists of two bars angled from the back of each temporal region to the midline on the nape. The Y-shaped nape marking is similar but each bar then extends as a streak down the back of the neck, with each pale streak separated on either side of the midline. Following the nape bar is a dorsal series of pale streaks or spots that run along either side of the midline. These pale markings may be paired or off-set but, even when paired, they are rarely merged. There is typically a thin pale line along the midline that may be unbroken or broken by the black edging around markings. On most specimens there is a series of obscure or obvious small pale spots along the midlateral line. The pale nape marking, dorsal markings and lateral spots are all edged with black and this merges with the extensive dark markings on the dorsal and lateral surfaces, such that the markings all appear heavily connected rather than discrete. A dark band extends from the naris to the eye, and then extends as the same thickness from the back of the eye to the nape marking and onwards down the dorsolateral zone. This dark band is bordered below by a thin white line along the labial scales that continues through the ear opening and along the neck to the insertion of the forelimb. The top of the head is heavily mottled with dark markings, but with pale areas in the upper temporal regions posterior to the eye, and a grey tinge on top of the eyes. There are sometimes white spots on the posterior temporal region or the back of the head. The top of the snout is dark, medially, and each canthus rostralis is pale. Iris dark with a milky, opaque surface. The limbs are dark with pale flecking. There is some indication of pale spots on the base of the hindlimbs on some individuals. The original tail is heavily marked with dark markings, with irregular, paired, pale markings along the dorsal midline. The regrown tail is dark with white flecking. All ventral surfaces are even, yellowish cream, except the underside of the tail which is yellowish cream but with faint indication of the dorsal and lateral tail pattern. Cloacal spur white.

As described above but all pale markings are whiter, dark markings are darker (dark grey or black), and the background colour is yellow rather than beige, with the yellow particularly bright on the tail. White spots on the base of the hindlimb are more pronounced in life, and present on most individuals. Iris appears black but there can be some indication of dark copper or brown under close inspection. The labial scales are bright white in life. Juveniles have creamy yellow markings, each edged with black, on a pinkish grey background (

has clearly suffered a massive reduction in range and population size over the last century and the remaining areas of habitat are potentially threatened by wildfire. High intensity fires burning in from adjacent woodlands could reduce or completely remove (at least temporarily) habitat at both sites. The species should therefore be assessed as a threatened species. All remaining remnants of brigalow habitat in the Arcadia Valley, which are few and very small in size, should be surveyed for this species. The primary conservation action is to increase the area and connectivity of brigalow habitat in the Arcadia Valley, either through replanting or allowing natural regeneration. Off-set schemes associated with mining and other clearing activities in the region could play an important role in this.
