Differs from the preceding in the following points : — A single 

 anterior nasal, followed by two postnasals ; labials not keeled, no 

 projecting labial margin ; usually one or two small azygos shields 

 between the pair of pru'frontals ; no occipital. Dorsal scales as large 

 as the caudals, much larger than the laterals ; ventral plates sub- 

 equal ; 27 to 30 scales round the middle of the body. The length 

 of the foot is less than the distance between the antehumeral fold 

 and the nostril. The number of femoral pores varies between 11 

 and 15. Brownish or golden above, with two light lateral bands as 

 in C. leschenauJtii, which are, however, not bordered with black bands, 

 but with longitudinal series of black spots ; lips, and frequently also 

 the throat, speckled with black.
