DiagnosisDiagnosis: E. rudis is diagnosed by the following combination of morphological characters: moderate body size (SVL 66.7–123.1 mm); tricarinate dorsal scales; scaly lower eyelid; 42–46 paravertebrals; 55–59 ventrals; 18–20 subdigital lamellae under toe IV; 32–34 midbody scale rows; temporals and scales on dorsal surface of the thigh keeled; supraoculars I and II in contact with the frontal and the presence of distinct, dark lateral bands along the body (Amarasinghe et al. 2020: 15)
