Eye to naris distance to internarial ratio highly variable (EN/IN mean 0.58, range 0.38–0.69). Dorsal colour varies from light grey mid-dorsal area with black flanks and upper surfaces of limbs, to light brown with darker brown irregular patches to fawn with a few spots of darker pigment and a black or dark brown patch on the flank. Limbs sometimes with faint transverse bands. A dark brown or black stripe extending from the snout, through eye, to base of arm. Ventral surfaces usually uniformly pale but some individuals with light mottling on throat and undersurfaces of hindlimbs. Usually a pair of small dark marks either side of cloaca. Fingers in decreasing order of length 3>2>4>1. Toes in decreasing order of length 4>3>5>2>1. In males either no nuptial pad or a dark, very weakly developed nuptial pad on first finger.
