They are usually found among dead leaves of yuccas in open wood areas.[3] It seems to prefer dry limestone canyons.[2] It is a relatively small species, with the maximum reported snout–vent length at Шаблон:Convert.[1] It is oviparous and has a litter size of 4–6 eggs.[2] Its head is glossy and smooth, grayish brown in color with scattered dark spots.[3] The lips are peppered with pigment and the chin and throat are white in color.[3]
