Colour range from jet-black dorsal and ventral regions with glands marked rusty brown. Variations of this include dorsal regions coloured greenish, rufous-brown, bright yellow, in patches. The colour of the glands vary from rusty brown, to a lighter cream colour. In topotypic material colours from the original

Dorsal parts of back and legs fade as well to a colour that is clear chocolate brown. Dorsal surfaces are irregularly blackish brown and clear chocolate brown.

Differences to this pattern included specimens with a mid dorsal reddish-brown colouration and ventral region reddish brown. We also observed specimens with a light brown/yellow colouration completely covering dorsal and ventral aspects (
