. Bonner zoologische Monographien. Zoology. 89. Map 18. Distribution of A. Description A. busacki is characterized by a large, robust body. The first supraocular is either entire or divided into two with some granules separating it from the second supraocular. There is one row of granules between the supraoculars and the superciliaries. The first of the six superciliaries is a little larger than the others. Four supralabials lie anterior to the subocular. The subocular presenting a distinct keel does not make contact with the upper lip. The anterior supratemporal is larger than the posterior one. The lanceolate concavity is well-defined. The upper temporal scales are granular and pointed while the lower ones are larger and unkeeled. A small tympanic scale is present. Below it, there are two or three scales equal in size with the lowest one in contact with the supralabials. The anterior border of the ear opening is pectinate with five scales. The collar is rounded and formed by 8 to 13 scales. The first three of the five pairs of submaxillaries make contact along the center. The gular scales, numbering from 24 to 35 in a straight line between the union of the third pair of submaxillaries and the central scale of the collar, are imbricate especially towards the collar. The gular fold is poorly defined. Granular pointed scales.
