Adult specimens have a uniform bluish dorsum with a light vertebral stripe and two dorsolateral black stripes, laterally visible from neck to midbody, which may or may not be evident, depending on the preserved condition, as well as the presence of a black postocular stripe. The snout can have the same dorsal color; predominantly whitish labials, except for the last two supralabials, which may present the same dorsal or postocular stripe color. Gular region, the first third of the belly, near cloacal region and subcaudals whitish; the remainder of the belly may be bluish. Juvenile specimens have the same color pattern variation present in adults, but they have a uniform olive brown dorsum and light crossbands along the dorsum. In our sample, the presence of light crossbands on the dorsum was found in juvenile specimens with a maximum SVL of 257 mm (CHUFC 3226) from
