| Diagnosis | Diagnosis: A moderate sized (max. SVL ~ 58 mm), relatively short-bodied (AG/SVL 0.40–0.49) and long- tailed (oTL/SVL 0.83–1.05) member of the A. rhombifer group. Dorsal pattern an irregular, deeply notched, pale vertebral zone, bordered by dark edging. The dark dorsolateral points are often in close proximity to those on the opposite side, serving to exaggerate the zigzag effect, and they sometimes join to form dark transverse bands (particularly over the nape, shoulders or hip). Little to no webbing between third and fourth toes. Males with 2–4 (usually 3), large, pointed, postcloacal spurs (small and rounded in females) and 2–7 precloacal pores, with a narrow to moderate pore gap (1–5 scales).
