A similar, more distinct, fairly straight line (also formed by a row of marginally enlarged scales) is present between the eyes and connects the supraocular spines.

After fourteen years in 70% ethanol, the color is faded. The dorsal coloration of the specimen is a mixture of beige and tan, with more tan on the dorsal head and midbody, and more beige on the anterior dorsum, lateral arms, and dorsal legs. A network of fine lines of contrasting color is weakly present on the dorsum, with the most distinct of these lines running between the supraocular spines. Either side of the base of the tail, dark brown markings are present, but the tail itself is the same beige color of the light areas of the dorsum, without a medial line. The outer surfaces of the legs and arms are darker in color than the thighs and upper arms. The triangular marking at the posterior of the head formed by dark lines converging from the angle of the jaw onto the vertebral line is indistinct. The ventral body is cream, with scales of gray to brown forming maculations on the abdomen, as well as a median line on the throat, and a series of curved lines on the chin. The ventral tail is unremarkable, being light brown without patterns. The tongue in preservative is cream, and the oral mucosa is visibly dark, but the jaw is too stiff to assess the state without damaging the specimen.

In life, the coloration was much as it is in preservative. Areas at the base of the tail were more distinctly brown than they have become, but otherwise the coloration remains largely unchanged, although faded. The oral mucosa was black at the back of the roof of the mouth and reddish either side of the base of the tongue; the coloration of the base of the tongue was not captured in our photographs (

Fetsy is a Malagasy word meaning ‘sly’, in reference to the rarity with which this species is encountered, evading researchers for a long time despite the substantial number of research expeditions conducted in Ankarana National Park, as well as its sly ‘smile’. The species epithet is used as an invariable noun in apposition.
