==Description==
Length (snout to vent length) is 39 mm for males, 43 mm for females. Throat is stippled with grey or brown while the belly is cream coloured. The back is grey-brown with dark streak from snout to shoulder or beyond.〔Branch, Bill. (1998). ''Field Guide to Snakes and Other Reptiles of Southern Africa.'' Third revised edition. Sanibel Is., Florida:Ralph Curtis Books Publ.〕 Its tail is remarkable for having the underside covered in adhesive lamellae enabling its use as a fifth limb. 〔Rose, Walter (1962).
