Prominent lateral white stripe in males (sometimes encroaching onto second dorsal scale row), usually extending onto head as postocular stripe passing below the eye and fading out on lower preocular, below pit. In some specimens, lateral stripe pale blue rather than white. Scales below postocular stripe lighter in colour than rest of head. Females lack obvious postocular stripe, but may have indistinct pale or blue streak. Usually little distinction between colour of supralabials and upper surface of head.
