SVL, with tail probably less than twice body length. Tongue anteriorly and posteriorly bearing oblique, anteriorly converging plicae, with intervening midsection of imbricate scalelike papillae; three pairs of nonswollen chrevronshaped infralingual plicae. Pterygoid teeth present. Phalangeal formulae 23 453 for hands, 23454 for feet. Hemipenis lacking spines or spinules, symmetrically bifurcate, with thickened, lobate apical discs; asulcate side of hemipenis with encircling nude ridges. Head scales smooth. Nasal scales separated by rostral and undivided frontonasal. Loreal separated from labials by frenocular. Supraoculars separated from eye lids by a complete superciliary series; anterior superciliary large, not expanded dorsally. Translucent palpebral disc composed of about six vertical panes. Frontoparietals medially in point contact. Interparietal longer than parietals, their common sutures forming a jagged line across rear of head. Tympanum slightly recessed, lightly pigmented. Single postmental scale followed by three pairs of genials in contact with labials. Anterior gular crease, incomplete guttural fold, and collar fold all conspicuous. Paramedian gulars enlarged, in short double row. Dorsal and lateral scales elongate with parallel sides, hexagonal, in transverse rows only; dorsals sharply keeled, strongly mucronate, laterals becoming less so. Lateral fold absent, a gra dation between lateral and ventral scales; median ventrals smooth, rectangular, gently rounded posteriorly, subimbricate, forming both transverse and longitudinal rows. Preanal scales in two rows. Femoral pores and preanal pores on same line. Limbs pentadactyl, all digits clawed; subdigital lamellae divided; base of pollex with enlarged thenar scales having produced median keels. Caudal scales similar to body scales, in uninterrupted annuli, no paramedian series of supracaudals along a vertebral suture.
