by the combination of the following characters: its lack of enlarged tubercles, its generally dull pattern, with a scattering of dark grey spots, each occupying a single scale at most, and sometimes a very faint indication of slightly darker brown dorsal reticulations, and often faint longitudinal stripes along the tail. Ventral surface is demarcated from dorsal surface along the lower sides, the ventral surface being paler than the dorsal, usually with scattered darker spots, each occupying a single scale. The colour of the ventral surface of the tail is more strongly demarcated from the dorsal tail surface colour than on the body. Eye colour is cream with a pale brown to orange reticulum through the iris. The mouth lining is pale blue–purple.

General head scalation of small circular to oblong granular scales, forming hexagramic patterns with neighbouring tiny scales; each larger granular scale is bordered by six approximately equal sized neighbours and six tiny intergranules.

Very faint dorsolateral stripes present on either side of the trunk, paler than the background colour, continuing over the hips and onto the tail.

): All dorsal surfaces are medium grey with very faint darker mottling. A sparse peppering of dark spots, which are both darker and more numerous on the head than the rest of the body and are generally smaller than the scales they occupy, although some are single scale in size. Ventral surface is cream to very pale tan with a moderately distinct demarcation between ventral and dorsal colour along the lower flank. Same dorsal/ventral colour demarcation present on tail. Small dark spots are present on ventral surfaces as on the dorsal surfaces.

One of the pale tail stripes forms a rough mid-line 1–4 scales wide. This is bordered on either side by a darker stripe 2–5 scales wide, while the pale dorsolateral tail stripes are 1–4 scales wide.

When there is an indication of dorsal body pattern, it is in the form of very faint longitudinally arranged series of blotches, tending to join up, but not regular enough to be considered stripes.
