Any herpetologists here?
edit" Anal scale entire. Subcaudals paired and numbering 50-63 in males, 44-54 in females. Internasals large and usually touching." This strikes me as three sentence fragments, and this layperson's inclination is to complete them with verbs, probably "are." But I thought I'd post a question here about it first; maybe this is typical and acceptable in scientific discussion. Dgndenver (talk) 09:40, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, it would be "anal scale undivided, subcaudals are paired and number 50 to 63 in males and 44 to 54 in females. Internasals are large and usually touching each other." Taxonomic descriptions were typically made compact in times when printing was expensive. Shyamal (talk) 02:30, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
