Seales unicolor. Throat white, perhaps yellowish in life. Vertex 
black, followed by a collar of white or red. The specimen described 
had forty-three circles of white orred. The rings were narrow, occu- 
pying but two of the ventrals. Muzzle without a black spot. The 
name bipunctiger was given on account of a couple of light-colored 
spots in the black of the crown. Tip of tail black.
