The
dorsum of
U. broughami is brown, with transverse series of small yellow black-edged ocelli. The sides have a series of large yellow spots. The
ventrals are dark brown. It grows to in total length (including tail). The
dorsal scales are arranged in 19 rows at midbody. The ventrals number 203–230, and the subcaudals number
subcaudals 7-10. The snout is acutely pointed. The
rostral is laterally compressed, obtusely keeled above, two fifths the length of the shielded part of the head, the portion visible from above much longer than its distance from the frontal. The
nasals are in contact with each other behind the rostral. The
frontal is as long as broad, or slightly longer than broad. The eye is very small, not half the length of the ocular. The diameter of the body goes 34 to 40 times into the total length. The ventrals are not twice as broad as the contiguous dorsal scales. The tail is obliquely truncate, flat above, with strongly pluricarinate scales. The terminal scute is bicuspid. ==Reproduction==
