Clone C:
Seven double fine black dots arranged symmetrically on the lateral medio-dorsal bands, from the back of the neck to the base of the tail. These marks are more or less regular on the lower points of the W formed by the chevrons; some individuals only show five or six, with others showing eight. Very rarely, either point of the median vertex of the W of the medio-dorsal line may have a darker marks. Differentiated from Clone A by the paired thin, black bands on the neck with a large medio-ventral lemon yellow band.
