Three pairs of chin-shields. Dorsal scales strongly keeled, in four longitudinal series; all the ventral shields are keeled, and form ten longitudinal and twenty-two or twenty-three transverse series. Generally two inguinal pores on each side of the vent. Greenish bronze­coloured above, sometimes with a pair of silvery bands; sides greenish, separated from the brown of the back by a narrow black streak, commencing at the nostril and passing through the eye and tympanum. The lower parts yellowish, iridescent.

We have specimens of this species from Rangoon and from Borneo; it probably occurs also in other parts of the East Indian Archipelago. The largest specimen is 14 inches long, of which the tail takes 11 1A2. The figures marked C, on Plate VIII., show the four dorsal series of scales and the two pairs of inguinal pores.
