Pygopus lepidopodus
Snake like in appearance. Up to 80 cm in length with a noticeable "keel" or ridge on the top of the lizard. Variable in colours and pattern. Occasionally grey with black spots. Sometimes coppery brown with a grey tail. Other patterns and variations occur. Prominent limb flaps may be seen on close inspection, hence the name "scaly foot".
Open Woodland.
