skink female skink male skink immature Skinks Typically, skinks have smooth, shiny, overlapping scales and elongate, cylindrical bodies. Their heads are cone shaped. Femoral pores are absent. The pupil is round, and many species have a large, transparent scale on the lower eyelid that enables them to see even when the lid is closed. In most species the tapering tail is easily broken but can be regenerated. Skinks are generally alert and active diurnal lizards but tend to be secretive, spending much time foraging under leaf litter. Most skinks are small, usually not exceeding 200 mm (8 in) in total length, but a few species are larger, and the Solomon Islands giant skink, Corucia zebrata, may exceed 600 mm (24 in). This species is unusual in that it is arboreal and has a prehensile tail. Skinks are most frequently striped but may be banded, spotted, or uniformly colored. Males of many species develop broad heads, presumably used in fighting during the breeding season. RANGE The skinks, with about 75 genera and 600 species, are one of the two largest lizard families. They are widespread and are particularly abundant in the great forests of Africa and Indoaustralia. The five-lined skink is a small striped lizard found in the wooded areas of the southeastern United States.

85. Lizards In Cyprus. There are also four skinks in Cyprus. Skinks are lizards with largeshiny scales and usually a relatively thick body and small limbs. http://www.cosmosnet.net/cyprus/explore/4savra.htm

The prehistoric looking Agama lizard can grow to well over 30cm. Lizards In Cyprus. The most striking and largest of the lizards of Cyprus is the Agama, Agama stellio (or Stellio stellio ). This is a large, prehistoric looking lizard that lives mainly on trees and stone walls and can reach a length of well over 30cm. In Europe it is only found in small colonies in Greece Look for Kotschy's Gecko under rocks and stones, not inside houses The Spiny- footed Lizard is agile but has suffered from losing many of its habitats in the coastal zone The Troodos Rock Lizard can, in fact, be found all the way down th the sea. and the Greek islands and in profusion practically everywhere in Cyprus. It is often seen basking in the sun quite motionless until disturbed, when it dashes to the safety of its hide. Chameleons are fairly common in Cyprus but difficult to spot as they are slow moving and often hide in trees. They are usually seen, painfully slowly, crossing roads, which take a toll on these animals. The Turkish Gecko

86. Lizards There are skinks, monitor lizards, cicaks, and the gecko lizard. We saw some. Theonly type of lizards that I saw were skinks. We saw lots of frogs too. http://www.globalclassroom.org/ch.html

Lizards Chris Herlevic When we got to the Gunung Leuser Park on April 14-16 we first set up traps. The reason we set up traps was to catch a lizard for me to examine and take care of. We looked at the traps every day. We caught nothing. So we chose another method. We went to the pond and went on an active search to catch lizards or frogs. Later we came back. We had no luck. So after lunch we decided to go up to the next pond and go in the water to search. We also had no luck there either. So we went back to the camp. On the trip we set up four traps in four different places. Those places were in the swamp, in an open burnt area, grassy area, and in a closed up area. We also did a 'active hunt" to catch lizards or frogs. You can do an active hunt in a swampy area or in a closed area. You would have to pick up rocks, look under leaves, and in a pond you would have to look on the logs. We didn't catch any reptiles but we caught a red frog on the path and saw different types of lizards and frogs. We saw many skinks. There are many different types of lizards and frogs in the Leuser Ecosystem. There are skinks, monitor lizards, cicaks, and the gecko lizard. The skink is like a gecko lizard but it is dark green and swiggles when it runs. This lizard also eats mosquitoes. Skinks are about 7-8 cm long. The monitor lizard is a meat eating lizard. It eats smaller animals than itself. It is a light green lizard with dark green stripes. This lizard is about 1 meter long. Cicaks are also night lizards and are green. They stand by the lights at night and wait for mosquitoes to come because that is what they eat. They are just a few cm long. The gecko is a 10 to 11 cm long lizard that has a colour of green and red or orange spots. It eats insects or smaller cicaks. It also makes a weird sound at night.

87. Skinks | Animal Facts | Chaffee Zoological Gardens Of Fresno The family scincidae, the skinks, is one of the largest families of lizards, witha worldwide distribution of over 600 species, yet it exhibits much less http://www.chaffeezoo.org/animals/skinks.html

Skinks CLASS: Reptilia ORDER: Squamata SUBORDER: Sauria FAMILY: Scincidae Genus species CLASSIFICATION: The family scincidae, the skinks, is one of the largest families of lizards, with a world-wide distribution of over 600 species, yet it exhibits much less variety of body form than other families of lizards. RANGE: Skinks live on all continents except Antarctica, but the majority are found in Southwest Asia and the East Indies. Most are burrowers or ground dwellers who seek cover on the forest floor or other ground with good cover. Some have become specialized for other types of habitat. Several are adept at climbing, but only one, the Prehensile Tailed Skink, is strictly arboreal. A few, the keeled skinks, are semi-aquatic. Others have become rock dwellers, while still others live in loose sand. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Length: Although adult size varies from a few inches to 2 feet, the majority are less than 8" long.

Lizards of West Virginia Identification and Natural History Home Back to Field Guide Family: Phrynosomatidae Northern Fence-Lizard Family: Scincidae Little Brown Skink Common Five-lined Skink Broad-headed Skink Northern Coal Skink Family: Teiidae Eastern Six-lined Racerunner There are 6 species of lizards in West Virginia in 3 families. Some of these are very common in the state. Fence lizards and five-lined skinks can easily be found on dry forested hillsides or around old buildings. Ground skinks are common in localized areas, though they are difficult to find because of their secretive nature. Broad-heads and coal skinks are more difficult to find. The six-lined racerunner was just added to the state list this August. Only one population is known in the state and it is likely that the lizard has entered West Virginia via railroad bridges crossing the Potomac River from Maryland! All of the lizards in West Virginia are relatively small in size (between 4 - 12 inches long). They are all insectivores and active during the daytime, usually during the hottest months of the year.

93. D. Croft Lizards: Prehensile-Tailed Skinks right). Although prehensiletailed skinks are amazing lizards, I wouldonly recommend them for the serious reptile enthusiast. To http://www.dcpaleo.org/Leisure/Animals/LizardsCorucia.html

Lizards Solomon Islands Prehensile-Tailed Skink (Corucia zebrata) My three skinks (left photo), from left to right, Kong, Hank, and Peggy. As demonstrated by Hank (right photo) prehensile-tailed skins often use their tails as a fifth limb. The bright orange food that Hank is eating is pureed sweet potatoes (i.e., baby food). Skinks are the most taxonomically diverse group of lizards and are found throughout the world. The majority of skinks are small lizards with smooth skin and reduced limbs that tend to live under logs, between rocks, and in the underbrush; these are the types of skinks you would see if you went looking for lizards anywhere in North America. As you can see from the photo above, however, Solomon Islands prehensile-tailed skinks are anything but "typical" skinks. Prehensile-tailed skinks (also known as monkey-tailed skinks) are members of a particularly interesting group of skinks that inhabit Australia and various islands in the south Pacific. The members of this group tend to be much larger than other skinks and many species, like prehensile-tailed skinks, display some very un-skinklike morphological features (discussed below). As their name indicates, Solomon Islands prehensile-tailed skinks occur in parts of Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands,

Seriously though, why not let him be (unless you have a cat) - he'll take care of the bugs in your house. If you see him later, then catch him. Trying to move the fridge would more than likely result in a) you developing an hiatus or inguinal hernia; b) one squished reptile; c) one stressed reptile that is more likely to drop its tail; or d) all of the above. If you have a cat, then it's probably a good idea to keep it shut up in another area of the house until you can catch the skink. If it's that scared, it might stay there until night.

95. Forest & Bird Magazines - May 2002 Yet many remain scientifically undescribed, and unnamed. Currently, there are 28skink species and 16 gecko species officially recorded. (Skinks are lizards http://www.forest-bird.org.nz/magazines/02May/namelesslizards.asp

Magazines: New Zealand's Nameless Lizards New Zealand has many more species of lizards than science records, writes GEOFF PATTERSON. The list of New Zealand's native lizards is growing apace, both through field discovery and genetic research. Yet many remain scientifically undescribed, and unnamed. Currently, there are 28 skink species and 16 gecko species officially recorded. (Skinks are lizards with smooth shiny skins, while geckos have baggy skin.) People who study lizards in the field have long known, however, that the number of species formally described drastically understates the true extent of 'lizard diversity' in New Zealand. In recent decades an avalanche of new species has been either split off from the existing ones using genetic techniques, or discovered in the field for the first time - as many as 30 new species, or nearly a 70 percent increase in diversity. Most of these are from the South Island, but there is scarcely any part of the country that does not now have one or or more new lizards associated with it. West Coast Lizards Until recently the West Coast of the South Island was thought to be a very unpromising area for lizards. Now, intensive searching by Department of Conservation staff and others has turned up some very interesting lizards indeed. On the Open Bay Islands, four kilometres off the southwest coast of New Zealand, there is an unusual-looking forest gecko that has long been known to be different from the adjacent mainland forest gecko. Among other features it is much smaller, with a distinctively short tail. Experts think there is little doubt it is a separate species, although it has yet to be shown to be genetically different, as specimens are difficult to come by.
