specimen displayed a brownish to grayish colouration on the dorsum and limbs. Above the spinal cord was a darker stripe, paired with a repeating pattern of lighter spots slowly fading to a darker colour on each side. The spots unified into a single spot on the tailbase, from where the pattern was weakened in colouration. On the head were some yellowish scales. On the neck and between the limbs were yellowish tubercles. The limbs were vaguely patterned with stripes of lighter and darker colouration at the same strength as the dorsum. The ventral side was whitish with a darker colouration on the legs and tail, and without a pattern (

. The name is a patronym for Herilala Jean Aimé Rudolph Randriamahazo, Malagasy field herpetologist and conservation biologist, in recognition for his contributions to our understanding of the ecology of various reptile species in Ankarafantsika National Park, and to the conservation of Malagasy amphibians and reptiles. The species epithet is a noun in the genitive case.
