SL and is judged to be an adult by the presence of small papillae in the anterior margins of the vent and a small mental gland behind the anterior tip of the mandible. The small head is rounded in dorsal profile, and somewhat flattened in lateral profile with a relatively blunt snout and distinct nasolabial protuberances. Snout to posterior angle of vent 9.8 times head width and 6.5 times head length. Nostrils are small but conspicuous under magnification. The small eyes are inconspicuous and do not extend beyond the lateral margins of the head. The suborbital groove does not intercept the lip line. The skin of the dorsal surface of the head behind the eyes is depressed in a pattern that suggests the presence of a frontoparietal fenestra. There is a single slightly enlarged premaxillary tooth that is located distinctly anterior to the maxillary teeth. Maxillary teeth total 41. The small vomerine teeth are in a short, fairly straight series and total 11. There are 20 costal grooves between the small limbs with a limb interval of 13 intercostal folds. Hands and feet are tiny, narrow, and elongated. Digit I is fused with digit II and digit IV is fused with digit III on the forelimbs, with only a part of a phalangeal segment of digit III free between digits II–III on the forelimbs. Digit I is fused with digit II and digit V is fused with digit IV on the hind limbs; both outer digits are extremely short on the hind limbs. The triangular tip of digit III of the hind limb is distinct from the tiny rounded tips of digits II and IV, but less than a full phalangeal segment of that digit is free of the others. Subdigital pads are nearly imperceptible. Digits on forelimbs in order of decreasing length are III–II–IV–I; digits on hind limbs are III–II–IV–(V–I). The tail is round in cross section and tapers gradually to a narrow tip; the tail is almost twice SL.

Dorsal and lateral surfaces of the head, body, and tail are black. Costal grooves on the body and tail are the same color as the body or slightly lighter dark gray, but at the deepest part of the groove pigment is lacking so the grooves are prominent. Ventral surfaces of the head, body, and tail are slightly paler black than those dorsal surfaces. Dorsal and ventral surfaces of the limbs are the same as for the body. Tiny white speckles are most visible behind the eye and over the shoulder, then in an irregular, narrow line along the dorsolateral part of the body to the hind limbs, but they are few in number and obscure. White spots are a little larger in the gular and chest areas ventrally. The nasolabial protuberances are unpigmented and contrast with the surrounding tissue.
