Eziokwu
Its body is covered with strongly keeled scales, which have a raised ridge along the middle; in large individuals the scales are tubercular, meaning they have small bumps.1
The species has been known from cloud forest as well as rain forest, which makes it one of the more varied habitats for a pit viper in this region.1
