ብኸመይ ትፈልጦ

  • Adults have an average snout-to-vent length of 63.5 cm.1
  • It has a uniquely large rostral scale, the scale at the tip of the snout, which helps it dig.1
  • Its dorsal (back) scales are arranged in 21 to 25 rows at midbody.1
  • The scales on the rear part of the body are keeled, meaning they have a ridge along the middle.1
  • It is nocturnal, so it is mostly active at night.1
