A wide dark postocular stripe extends to the insertion of the forelimbs. This stripe is flanked below by a longitudinal row of white to light cream colored tubercles. The lines on the top of head are narrow, diffuse or fragmented, often forming reticulations, but sometimes they are nearly absent. There are specimens with such lines fused at the level of the occiput. Generally, there are 67 barely defined transvere zones on the body between the limbs, containing scattered black tubercles bordered by transvere rows of white tubercles. Some specimens have no defined transverse dark zones, but only a scattered arrangement of white and dark brown to black tubercles. Tail with gray to dark brown bands which are sharper and more intensely colored distally. Regenerated tails have small dots and flecks. Enlarged supraciliary scales at the anterior border of eyes are whitish cream.</paragraph>
