Yes that is A.concolor
How was this specimen collected?

Nice find. I'm also sure it's A. concolor. The other species up there will be A. polylepis but there scales will appear smaller (polylepis = many scales).

Good thing it is not a Stiletto... I would really like to find some of these, so make sure you find a strong colony before I visit next month

You probably just need a large amount of rain, and then do some road cruising...that ought to flush them out! Hopefully the rain falls this week and not next!

Hot and humid? Sounds like road-cruising weather to me..
