Frontals rhomboid, paired, converging posteriorly, with a long middorsal suture (suture length ca. 30.4 % of head length), in point contact with ocular, in contact with postocular, prefrontal and parietal. Parietals pentagonal, paired, longer than wide, with a long middorsal suture (suture length ca. 20.9 % of head length), with their posterior border straight and parallel to the second body annulus, in contact with postocular, frontal, and second body annulus. Posterior to the parietals is a pair of occipital scales, rectangular, almost as wide as the parietals. Ocular diamond-shaped, in broad contact with second and third supralabials, prefrontal and postocular, in point contact with frontals. Eye barely visible in anterior corner of ocular. Three supralabials, increasing in size posteriorly; first rhomboid, smallest, longer than high, in point contact with prefrontal (only left side), in contact with rostral, second supralabial and in extensive upper contact with the nasal; second one pentagonal, in point contact with nasal (only right side), in contact with prefrontal, ocular, first and third supralabial; third pentagonal, higher than the first and second, in contact with second supralabial, ocular, postocular, temporal and postsupralabial. The anterior edge of the parietals is flush with the level of the angulus oris. Posteriorly of the supralabials there is a row of scales that includes postocular, temporal, postsupralabial and the first segment of the first body annulus.

Body annuli distinct. The first body annulus is well-defined only ventrally. Dorsally the first body annulus includes postsupralabial, temporal and the very large postocular dorsally limited by frontal and parietal. There are 306 body annuli. Only one interspersed half-annulus were noted (included in the counts, 303). A midbody annulus contains 10 dorsal segments and 14 ventral segments; the ventral segments, with two central scales rows larger than adjacent scales, only slightly larger than dorsal ones; lateral sulci well marked, separating the dorsal and the ventral segments, starting at the level of 60th body annulus and continued almost to level of vent; no dorsal or ventral sulcus (
