starts withThe type series includes one adult male measuring 53 mm (2.1 in) and two adult females measuring 51 and 52 mm (2.0 and 2.0 in) in snout–vent length. Four juveniles ranged 21–40 mm (0.83–1.57 in) in SVL. The head is relatively wide and the snout is short. The canthus rostralis is rounded. The tympanum is indistinct. Both fingers and toes are unwebbed but have moderately enlarged disks. Skin is smooth. The dorsum shows an irregular pattern of dark brown mottling, to which the specific name marmoratus (=Latin for "mottled") refers to. The pattern is more diffuse in the juveniles.
