Hi all, just curious as to what this little guy is. I saw it about half way down the east coast of the Yorke Peninsula in South Australia. I've searched carefully (twice!) through all of the photos and range maps in the 2 field guides I have (the Swanson book and the Wilson/Swan book) and cannot for the life of me ID this thing. Sorry, pics aren't the best but I can say that the skink had 4 digits on each foot and was very irridescent. There is just such a bewildering array of skinks in Oz, many more than I was accustomed to in the U.S.! Moloch, I've really enjoyed your trip write-ups and photography and know you're a fan of skinks, so I'm hoping you might ID this for me. Thanks in advance everyone!
