Colour and pattern of dorsal and lateral surfaces of live specimen alternate black and white bands. White banding begins on the head including white markings classed as bands on the nasal scales and parietal scales. White bands are 1–2 white scales wide with mottling around each white scale resulting in white bands of smaller width that do not have a defined edge. Dark or mottled ventrals that terminate to black rings. Frozen and preserved specimens lose the white vibrancy, resulting in a yellowish tinge and brownish bands under light.
