Head length less than head width (HL/HW = 0.86 ± 0.04, range = 0.750.94), and eye to naris distance usually less than internarial span (EN/IN = 0.91 ± 0.08, range = 0.751.08). Mid­dorsal region with continuous, very broad stripe that has internal light patches, or a linear series of very large dark blotches. At least some margins of stripe and blotches finely edged in black or white. Remainder of dorsal surface usually with few to many small to large blotches. Dark lateral headstripe extends posteriorly beyond supratympanic fold, reaching to above axilla, width variable. Dark bars on upper surface of limbs with fine black margins, very narrow to moderately broad. Only 09 large pale blotches (

Blotches always bordered by a dark margin that varies in intensity. Ventral surfaces immaculate except that the chin has a dusky margin in 44% of specimens.

Dorsal surfaces of body and limbs vary from light fawn to rich copper brown or dark brown. Mid­dorsal stripe, dorsal patches, patches on sides of face, and bars on limbs darker brown or copper­brown than ground color. Center of dorsal and facial patches lighter than margins, which, in some individuals, are bordered by thin cream line. Lateral head stripe black, bordered by fine cream or fawn line sharply demarcated against the black stripe but diffuses into ground color. Tympanum darker than ground color, not bordered by lighter line. Upper lip immaculate or with small brown blotches. Small black patches occur immediately below and adjacent to eye. Lateral triangular patch that expands from external nostril to front of jaw dark brown or black towards margin with a more diffuse lighter brown center. Iris dark brown. Brown of dorsal surface merges laterally with lighter ventral coloration. Posterior surface of thigh dark brown to grey with irregularly shaped cream or off­white blotches, each with darker margin. Sides of limbs with roughly triangular, dark brown to black patches. Ventral surfaces white with a lemonyellow flush.
