| Diagnosis | Diagnosis: A species of the genus Trimeresurus which is assigned to the subgenus Trimeresurus based on the following morphological attributes: a long papillose or calyculate hemipenis and partially fused first supralabial and nasal scales (Malhotra and Thorpe 2004a; David et al. 2011). The new species Trimeresurus ciliaris sp. nov. can be distinguished from all other congeneric species by the following combination of morphological characters: three or four small convex supraocular scales; internasals not in contact; small scale between nasal and the scale formed by the fused second supralabial and loreal present; dorsal scales in 17–17–15 rows; ventral scales 172–175 in males, 171 in a single female; subcaudal scales 59–63 in males, 52 in a single female, all paired; in life an emerald-green dorsum with reddish-brown crossbands; creamy-white venter lacking dark dots or stripes on the lateral sides of the ventrals; iris olive-green with faded-brown horizontal stripe; tail dark brown mottled with rusty spots; white vertebral spots present in both sexes located approximately every two or three dorsal scales; dark brown spots forming discontinuous pattern present on 1–3 lateral dorsal scale rows; males having a reddish-brown postocular stripe.
