Material examined. Table 2.
This species is easily differentiated from other gym- nophthalmid lizards in the region by its strongly keeled head and dorsal scales and by having the ventral scales large, keeled, mucronate, and quadrangular to rectangu- lar. It differs from Loxopholis rugiceps , the only other Loxopholis in trans-Andean Colombia, by having the frontonasal divided, instead of single ( Köhler 2008).
