Head rather short; snout obtuse. Head-shields rather rugose in 
the adult. Nasals swollen; frontonasal separated from the rostral ; 
two prefrontals, frequently a small azygos shield between; frontal 
grooved anteriorly ; two large supraoculars, often bordered entirely, 
or nearly entirely, with granules ; four to six small scales or granules 
on a line from the loreal to the anterior supraocular, the length of 
which is much less than its distance from the loreal; two or three 
series of granules between the supraoculars and the supraciliaries ; 
interparietal usually pentagonal, longer than the suture between the 
frontoparietals, in contact with a trapezoid occipital ; temporal scales 
granular, smooth or obtusely keeled ; anterior border of ear subden- 
ticulated ; lower eyelid with a large transparent disk formed of two 
scales; subocular bordering the lip, between the fourth and fifth or 
fifth and sixth (rarely sixth and seventh) upper labials; usually the 
two anterior pairs of chin-shields in contact. Collar straight, per- 
fectly free, with 9 to 15 plates. Dorsal scales granular on the 
nape, rhomboidal, feebly imbricate, distinctly keeled from between 
the shoulders, gradually increasing in size towards the tail; 55 to 
60 scales across the middle of the body. Ventral plates not, or 
scarcely, broader than long, in 12 or 14 straight and 33 to 
36 angular transverse series. Praeanals subequal, irregular. The 
adpressed hind limb reaches the ear, or a little beyond, in the 
male, the shoulder or the collar in the female; the length of 
the foot equals the distance between the arm and the centre of 
the eye or the anterior border of the orbit; a series of very large 
subtibial shields, and one or two of smaller ones; scales on upper 
surface of tibia imbricate and strongly keeled, not, or but slightly, 
larger than the posterior dorsals; scales on upper surface of 
arm larger than gulars, rhomboidal, strongly imbricate, obtusely 
keeled. 12 to 16 femoral pores. Tail about twice as long as head 
and body; upper caudal scales strongly keeled; basal subcaudals 
smooth or obtusely keeled. Brownish above, usually with four lon- 
gitudinal blackish bands, in each of which is enclosed a series of
