Background dorsal coloration varies from grayish brown (e.g., QCAZ 48094) to pale grayish brown (e.g., QCAZ 48096) or pale brown (e.g., QCAZ 48094). Irregular dorsal marks may be present in diverse patterns. A faint middorsal line extends from the tip of snout to mid-dorsum (e.g., QCAZ 40079), mid-sacrum (e.g., QCAZ 40060) or to the cloaca (e.g., QCAZ 48095-96). There is variation in the number, size and shape of the dorsum marks. Five to seven broad transversal bands (sometimes interconnected) may be present on the dorsum; the dorsal surfaces of the limbs have brown transversal bars (one or two each on upper arm and forearm and three to five each on thigh, shank, and foot) (e.g., QCAZ 40080). Some individuals have scattered black or white dots on the dorsum (e.g., QCAZ 40060). The coloration of flanks varies from creamy white to gray with conspicuous dark brown irregular spots distributed from the groin to mid-flank. In some individuals, similar spots can also be present on the hidden surfaces of shanks and dorsal surfaces of feet (e.g., QCAZ 48096). The coloration of the hidden surfaces of thighs varies from creamy white to brown, with dark brown spots (e.g., QCAZ 40060) or blotches (QCAZ 48096).</paragraph>
