The specimen is of moderate size and in good preservation state, with no evidence of any fractures and only a small incision on the left thigh, which was made for the extraction of tissue to generate molecular data. After over 130 years in preservative, however, the coloration of the specimen has faded to a pale creamy brown, with darker coloration in the dorsal and especially lateral areas. The dorsal surface of the head and the ventral region are significantly lighter in coloration than the rest of the body. The colour of the specimen in life is unknown. The snout is broadly rounded in dorsal view and pointed in lateral view, with the eyes and nostrils positioned laterally, making them difficult to discern from the dorsal perspective. The skin structure on the dorsal site of the head and belly is smooth, while the dorsal area, the thighs and lower legs have a finely granular texture. The sides of the snout show papillae and spinulae, the loreal region is straight and the tympanum is round and indistinct. The throat is of smooth texture, showing a clear brown color speckled with minute white spots. It has a large round palmar tubercle,
