Eulamprus quoyii
Body olive-brown, distinct gold stripes down sides of back from eyes to tail base, sides with broad black zone and pale flecks.
The Eastern water skink is usually found close to or on the shore of slow flowing creeks and estuaries, hence its name. Although, the Eastern water skink is not restricted to areas near freshwater, it is frequently found in somewhat dry environments, including sandstone outcroppings and savanna. The distribution of the Eastern Water Skink ranges from southern Victoria to central Queensland. -Wikipedia
