In preservative (alcohol 70% after formalin), the dorsal ground color is hair brown with dark and cream mottling on dorsal scale rows 1–3; there are 34 dorsal crossbands along the body, seven on the tail, extending laterally to the first dorsal scale row except for the first two which extend to dorsal scale row six (blotches). The crossbands are tawny olive, one dorsal scale long, edged by black borders of about the same length, separated from each other by two to three dorsal scale lengths, they become indistinct and darkly mottled on the first and/or second dorsal scale rows; they alternate with small lateral blotches of the same color that cover partially the first and second dorsal scale rows on each side. The dorsum of the head is olive brown, slightly paler than the dorsum of the body, with some inconspicuous dark brown spots; an incomplete short dark band is present in the nuchal region. Supralabials have cream spots with dark mottling in the lower portion. Infralabials, mental and chinshields are mostly dark brownish olive with cream spots. The venter is cream heavily pigmented with large rectangular and irregular dark brownish olive blotches.

The background color of the dorsum is dark brown (darker tone than what was observed in the preserved specimens), becoming almost black towards the middorsal region. The crossbands are conspicuous and bright yellow on the side but become suffused with brown color towards the middorsal region. The black borders of the crossbands are not distinct in this specimen. There are about 42 crossbands total from neck to tail.
