What are the Body characteristics of lizard (Hemidactylus frenatus)? Based on the text.  

BODY: Axilla-snout length; axilla-groin length.
Scales: Type (shape); Type (structure) Note differences in scales on dorsal, lateral and ventral
sides.
Midbody scale rows: Number of circumferential rows at a point midway between
forelimbs and hindlimbs.
Vertebral scale rows: Number of transverse rows between parietals and point on tail
base opposite the vent.
Tubercles: When present, note shape and location; note number of circumferential tubercle rows
at midbody.
Enlarged scales in pore series: Total number of ventral rows from side to side at the preanal
region and from proximal to distal at the femoral region.
Note if the preanal and femoral enlarged scales are continuous or separated by smaller
scales.
Preanal pores (in males only): Number of preanal enlarged scales with pores.
Femoral pores (in males only): Number of femoral enlarged scales with pores.
Note if femoral pore series continuous with preanal pore series.
