Head shorter than in 7. sexlineatus. A series of granules between 
the supraoculars and the supraciliaries; asmall shield separates the | 
large anterior supraccular from the loreal; temporal scales obtusely 
keeled. Dorsal shields very variable in number and in size, very 
strongly keeled ; they usually form six to eight series, of which the 
median are as a rule the smallest ; sometimes only five series on the 
posterior half of the body; eight or ten series of large ventrals, 
which are either all strongly keeled or only the outer rows; two to 
four longitudinal rows of smaller keeled shields on each side of the 
ventrals. One or two inguinal pores on each side. Greenish or 
brownish above, with or without a light black-edged dorso-lateral 
band as in 7. sevlineatus; a more or less distinct light streak from 
below the eye to the shoulder, sometimes extending along the side 
of the body ; lower surfaces yellowish or greenish.
