Some specimens (e.g., CORBIDI 7275, 7277) have venters densely spotted, the two adult females (CORBIDI 7271, 7280) have finely reticulated venters. Throat coloration light cream with faint chocolate blotches on sides of throat (CORBIDI 7271, 7282), or light cream with scattered chocolate blotches (CORBIDI 7277, 7278, 7283, 7286), or dark brown (CORBIDI 7280, 7281) or pale brown with white vermiculations (CORBIDI 7276).

The skin of the anterior and posterior surfaces of thighs and concealed surfaces of shanks is light cream or brownish-cream.

Background color of flanks varies from grayish-cream to brownish-cream; some specimens (CORBIDI 7273, 7282, 7280, 7271) have a long undulating longitudinal dark brown stripe along the flanks; CORBIDI 7274 has scattered circular blotches along the flanks; the rest of the specimens have irregular dark brown or pale brown blotches along the flanks. Lateral head coloration varies from brown to dark brown.
