Nuchal grooves may be distinct dorsally and ventrally, except third which ventrally is incomplete; second nuchal collar partially fused below with first primary fold; a dorsal transverse groove is present on each collar, shorter and less distinct on first. Body subcylindrical, slightly wider than deep. Width along body may vary slightly.
