Description

Specimens from Costa Rica measure Шаблон:Convert in total length and have 85–102 primary and 11–26 secondary annuli; the annular grooves lack dark pigment seen in Dermophis mexicanus and Dermophis oaxacae.[4] The body is slender. The eyes can be seen through the skin.[2] The head is pinkish, contrasting with the purplish-gray body.[4]

Dermophis parviceps occurs in humid montane and lowland forest at elevations of Шаблон:Convert above sea level. It is a subterranean species that can be found as deep as Шаблон:Convert below the soil surface, but also under logs or in leaf litter.
