On 10 April 2016 at 17h00 SM found an adult individual ( RBINS 18473 About RBINS ) active along a road in Lékédi Park. It has a snout-vent length of 156 mm, a tail length of 60 mm, 25 scale rows at midbody, two supranasal scales, one loreal on each side separating the supranasal from the preocular; on each side the ocular scale is in contact with the 3 rd supralabial. Another adult individual ( RBINS 18474 About RBINS ) was found at 17h00 by SM on 11 October 2016 in a natural ditch in the park; it was then active and quickly moved in the soft soil to hide under a rock. It had a snout-vent length of 164 mm, a tail length of 67 mm, two supranasal scales, 26 scale rows at midbody; its ocular scale is in contact with the 3 rd supralabial. A third individual ( RBINS 18498 About RBINS ) was found in the park by SM on 7 July 2017 at 17h30; it has a snout-vent length of 128 mm, a tail length of 49 mm, 26 scale rows at midbody, two supranasal scales, and on each side the ocular scale is in contact with the 3 rd supralabial. On 14 November 2017 Jean-Louis Albert (~ JLA) found a young individual (total length 120 mm), freshly dead-on-road in Franceville in Passa Dept. ( Fig. 10 View Fig ). New record for the park and new Prov. record; Haut-Ogooué Province was the last Gabonese province from which this common species had not yet been recorded (see distribution given by Pauwels and Vande weghe 2008) .
