made to extract liver tissue, forms strong ventrolateral folds on both sides of the trunk, distal half of the tail curved towards the left; hemipenis partially everted on both sides—all artefacts of preservation. An adult male; head comparatively shorter than SVL, (HL 31.0% of SVL); slightly broad, (HW 61.8% of HL); slightly depressed, (HD 36.2% of HL), distinct from neck. Loreal region slightly inflated; interorbital region and forehead fairly concave; canthus rostralis rounded; snout comparatively longer, (E-S 12.9% of SVL), longer than horizontal eye diameter (HED 53.4% of E-S). Scales on snout, forehead, canthus rostralis, and inter-orbital region rounded, smooth, convex scales on snout larger than those on occipital region; scales on occipital region small, mostly granular, intermixed with comparatively larger, keeled scales. Eyes rounded, small (HED 22.2% of HL); pupil vertically elliptical with crenulated margins; supraciliaries small, few slightly elongate on anterior of top half of orbit, gradually decreasing in size posteriorly. Ear opening deep, roughly oval, (EL 19.1% of E-N); lacking enlarged lobules; E-E 1.2 times greater than horizontal diameter of eyes. SL 10/9 (left/right), 8
