  • Its body has 21 to 25 rows of scales at the middle of the body, usually 23.1
  • Most of its body scales have a ridge down the middle (keeled). The scales near the back of the body have small bumps on the ridge, even in small snakes.1
  • In large adults, the ridges on the back scales are highly raised.1
  • Adults are large. The specimens measured range from about 87 cm to about 123 cm long, including the tail.1

Ñu ngi koy faral di jaxasoo ak: It was once grouped with Bothrops pulcher, a related pitviper, and was long treated as part of that species. Scientists later found it to be a separate species.1
