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.
