This burrowing species is characterised by its greenish-grey colour, patterned with yellowish spots and its handsome black and orange markings along the flank. 

Juveniles are striped and have a reddish tail. It can be found basking in the sun along sandy, forest trails, and can be locally common on golf courses. If alarmed it will quickly return to its burrow; at night this is sealed with sand, probably as a defensive measure against nocturnal snakes.

It is found in the Mekong Basin of Indochina, and in coastal areas of Thailand, West Malaysia and Sumatra. It is absent in Singapore.
