Project Noah Fun Fact: Skinks are lizards belonging to the family Scincidae and the infraorder Scincomorpha. With more than 1,500 described species, the Scincidae are one of the most diverse families of lizards. The Emerald tree skink is found in arboreal forests of Taiwan, Palawan, Luzon and Sulu archipelagoes in the Philippines, New Guinea as well as the Indo-Australian archipelago and down south to the Solomon and Santa Cruz islands. It feeds on insects and other small creatures, although occasionally it may devour fruit and leafy plants. ~Wikipedia
