  • Long scales on the back of the head and front half of the body, shaped like hollow curves that thin to a sharp point.1
  • A pentagonal (five-sided) rostral shield, the scale at the tip of the snout, with two large suprarostral scales above it.1
  • Spiny scales that run down to the middle of the body.1

Hangata e ferekanngwa le: It is closely related to Atheris hispida. The two can be told apart by counts of scales: A. acuminata has five interorbitals (scales between the eyes) and six supralabials (scales along the upper lip), while A. hispida has 6 to 10 interorbitals and 7 to 10 supralabials. Its rostral shield has two suprarostrals, where A. hispida has three.1
