Dorsal pholidosis with homo- geneous small and granular scales; ventral scales smooth and slightly larger. A small, triangular small mental scale, and four to five small postmentals followed by a line of subequally sized post-postmentals. Precloacal and femoral pores absent. Two to four postcloacal spurs. As typical in Urocotyledon, prehensile tail with characteristic lamellae on the underside of the tip of the tail. Subcaudal scales smooth and slightly larger than dorsal scales. One pair of leaf-like terminal scansors separated by a groove on all fingers and toes. Four undivided scansors beneath first digit of both manus and five of pes, 9 or 10 beneath fourth digit of manus, 10 or 13 beneath fourth digit of pes. Dorsum presents pale greyish-pink coloration (in life) with two darker dotted or continuous crossbands from neck to the proximal end of the tail. Lateral band on head from eye to nape.

| Comment | |
| Etymology | The name “norzilensis” derives from two local words, “nor” and “zil” which in Seselwa, the official Seychelles creole language, refer to “north” and “islands”, respectively, and refer to the geographical distribution of this cryptic species. The termination “-ensis” refers to being from a place or locality. |
