Unfortunately, I can't find a suitable website .
I identified this one using my "Lizards of Borneo" guide book.

Amazing composition!

Thanks for the correction Chun, updated. If you know of a link to a page showing photograhically the differences between Eutropis multifasciata & Emoia atrocostata can you post it here please. Might need to check others which I saw here and elsewhere.
