Earless Skink
Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition Earless Skinks Scientific classification Scientific classification refers to how biologists group and categorize extinct and living species of organisms. Modern classification has its roots in the system of Carolus Linnaeus, who grouped species according to shared physical characteristics. These groupings have been revised since Linnaeus to improve consistency with the Darwinian principle of common descent. Molecular systematics, which uses Genomic DNA analysis has driven many recent revisions and is likely to continue to do so. Scientific classification belongs to the science of taxonomy or biological systematics.
Click the link for more information. Kingdom In biology, a kingdom is the top-level, or nearly the top-level, grouping of organisms in scientific classification. Originally, two kingdoms were distinguished, the Animalia (animals), which typically could move about, and the Plantae (plants), which typically could not. Early authors also had a third kingdom for minerals. Each kingdom was divided into classes, later into phyla for animals and divisions for plants. This simplistic classification has been largely abandoned thanks to new developments, however.

Grows to a maximum length of 50 cm DISTRIBUTION: Australia and Indonesia HOUSING: The size of the housing depends on the size of the animal. A hatchling would want about 24 x 12 inches, this allows it to find its food easily. Adults require 36 x18 inches. This can support up to three animals (1 male, 2 females). Hides could be decorative piles of rocks, bark tubes or cardboard boxes. The lizards should be kept at 25- 35C with a drop of up to 10C at night. Localised heating using a heat mat which covers 1/2 of the floor area should be adequate. The substrates which can be utilised are sand, bark chippings or sawdust. Humidity may be maintained by spraying the vivarium twice a week UV light is required occasionally even if Calcium and D3 supplements are given. DIET: Water should always be available in low sturdy dishes to avoid spillage's. diet can consist of insects, snails, pinkie mice, lean meat, tinned cat food, fish, eggs, cockles fruit and vegetables. The animals will require feeding 3 or 4 times a week. The food sources should be sprinkled with vitamin supplements and calcium in the form of ground cuttlefish bone.

http://www.bio.davidson.edu/projects/herpcons/herps_of_NC/lizards/lizards.html
North Carolina is home to 12 species of lizards (Order Squamata, Suborder Lacertilia) , none of which are dangerous . Superficially, lizards and salamanders are similar in appearance, however lizards have scales and small claws at the ends of their toes, while salamanders do not. One group of lizards, the glass lizards ( Ophisaurus spp.) are legless and thus resemble snakes. Snakes, however, lack the external ear openings and movable eyelids of these lizards. Lizards can be very abundant in some areas but are often difficult to spot and even more difficult to capture. Because of their abundance, lizards play important roles in food chains and benefit humans by controlling insect populations.

Shinglebacks Trachydosaurus rugosa Last updated Shingleback in a defensive display.
Photograph stolen from the Usenet. Introduction: Shinglebacks have been chopped into a number of sub species in the last few years (Dr Glen Shea). This is a predicted change in that they do change over their broad geographic range. The species below is the most eastern type and is considered the largest of the group. They are a standard chocolate brown as adults. The further west you go the smaller they get. This is "Dad". We have had him from 10/01/92. They are a harmless and very docile species and are popular as pets here in Australia. They are common west of the Great Dividing Range to the arid inland. The east coast is too humid for them so their husbandry is a little different to most lizards here. Housing: The cage should include a reflector bulb at one end focused on a large rock or log for basking , and a fluorescent light with the appropriate tube to provide UVB . A place for the animal to hide is also necessary to avoid stress. The floor can be covered in leaf litter or newspaper. They rarely climb ; so a cage which is wider rather than high is better. Two adults can be housed comfortably in a cage 900 long x 600 wide x 400 high. Being an arid / desert species the preferred temperature for this group is generally considered to be high . In reality they die at 45.5 C (Critical Thermal Max CTM) and their preferred range is around 33 C (Heatwole and Taylor) . This is one of the most important considerations with any reptile being kept. The temperature under the basking light may be considerably higher than their CTM but the Shingleback will move away once it reaches it's preferred temperature range.

EUROPE: Call AUSTRALIA: JAPAN: Call LAST UPDATE: 07-Jun-2004 Tasmania, Australia - This island off the southeastern coast of Australia is known for its rugged wilderness and wealth of endemic species, from Tasmanian devils to raucous yellow wattlebirds. Despite being one of the southernmost habitats in the world for lizards, Tasmania harbors 17 species of skink, including 6 endemic species in the genus Niveoscincus Drs. Joan Whittier University of Queensland ) and Susan Jones and Ashley Edwards (both of University of Tasmania ) suggest that Tasmanian lizards may have special mechanisms to cope with these environmental stresses. You can help them discover if these skinks are also equipped to cope with potential climate change or more local environmental changes brought on by agricultural or other human developments.

    Lizards of Europe - SKINKS
    As befitting such a ubiquitous family, the skinks have several species in Europe, although most are confined to the southern parts. Most if not all show the reduced limbs or leglessness so typical of this family.
    Suborder SAURIA Scientific Name Common Name Distribution Size Notes Family SCINCIDAE Ablepharus kitaibelli kitaibelli Snake-eyed Skink Greece, Asia Minor Small and timid but very territorial skink, this is the most northerly of its family. Like many skinks of this size it is a forest dweller, living in leaf litter and preying on small insects and spiders. They normally hibernate from October to April, depending on the climate. Males normally have longer limbs, but otherwise the sexes are hard to distinguish. 2-4 eggs are laid in a hole in the ground. The genus Ablepharus is characterised by the fused and transparent eyelids (like those of the true geckos or snakes), hence the common name. A. k. fitzingeri

    Added 11 August 2002. Last updated February 29 2004: added details of latest taxonomic changes.
    The Scincidae
    Mabuya
    One of the largest genera of any reptile group. Mabuya species can be found in Asia, Africa and South America, being absent only from Europe and Australia. While all the species are a similar shape, coloration varies widely while reproduction may be either oviparous, viviparous or even both within a single species. Within the pet trade, various Mabuya species are often offered for sale. Their needs are fairly simple, but there is often confusion over to the correct identification of individuals owing to the sheer number of species. Although there seems to be a temptation to regard them as cheap pets, these are often attractive skinks that are straightforward to care for, and they deserve more attention from hobbyists. The following features are common to the genus: well-developed limbs, each with five toes: long, tapering tails: large eyes, each with movable eyelid that may have a transparent window: distinct ear openings, often deeply sunk. Nostril pierces a single nasal: supranasals and prefrontals are present. Scales are cycloid and overlapping, usually keeled but may be smooth. Preanal and femoral pores are absent. Grzimek notes that Mabuya species are often found in tropical rainforests on SE Asian islands with the species of the related genus Sphenomorphus . This is possible because both occupy somewhat different ecological niches and have different arthropod prey. This page is very much an ongoing work, owing to the large number of species and their geographical diversity, which entails tracking down a number of sources.

The two species Lampropholis delicata and Lampropholis guichenoti are of similar size (average body length of 4 cm) and colouration. Both species occur throughout the Sydney region and are widely distributed along the eastern and southern coast and ranges. These small skinks lay up to five small, white, rubbery eggs in a clutch, and often deposit these in large communal nests of 20-100 or more eggs. Garden Skink, Lampropholis delicata .

    The most diverse group of lizards is the skinks. It is also the group that appears to have most successfully integrated into the highly modified urban environment. The Blue-tongue Lizard, Tiliqua scincoides scincoides , with a total length of nearly 0.5 m is the largest lizard species in urban gardens and reserves of the harbour area. There are also a number small species of skink, Lampropholis sp . and Saproscincus sp that occur commonly in residents' gardens. These skinks reach maturity at a total length including tail of 10 cm. The Three-toed Skink, Saiphos equalis, is a nearly limbless species of skink that lives a largely subterranean existence and is commonly encountered by residents in some areas while working in gardens.
