Lygosoma punctatum
Young skinks of this species have a distinctive red tail, but this colour is lost in adults. The red tail is replaced by small spots and these spots coalesce to form continuous lines as the individual ages. The dots are present on the head and extends to the snout.
Spotted near human habitation.
Thank you so much dear Despina for your comments and for the ID support! !
Congrats Pradeep, this colorful skink has been chosen as Spotting of the Day!
