Four postrostrals, the lateral two (supranasals) distinctly larger than the median postrostral; median postrostral slightly larger than adjacent posterior scales on snout. A small scale between the left postrostral and the median postrostral also touches the proximal edge of the rostral. Nostril bordered proximally by rostral, from above by supra rostral, posteriorly by three (left) and three (right) postnasals. Postnasals slightly larger than adjacent loreals. Scales on top of snout, hexagonal to round, juxtaposed, relatively uniform in size. Canthus rostralis rounded.

. Color in general very much faded. Dorsal coloration immaculate, very pale brown (paler on snout and over the interorbital area, becoming slightly darker from nape backwards. The vertebral spine is even lighter (probably due to preservation artifacts or dehydration). There are two symmetrical irregularly rounded suprahumeral white spots surrounded by black. Ventral side is spotless; chin, chest and cloacal region paler than throat and belly. Posterior part of the sides dark brown.
