Concinnia frerei, also known commonly as the stout bar-sided skink or the stout barsided skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia. [2]
The specific name, frerei, refers to Mount Bartle Frere where the holotype was collected. [2] [3]
C. frerei is found in northeastern Queensland. [2]
The preferred natural habitat of C. frerei is rocky mountaintops, at altitudes of 1,210–1,622 m (3,970–5,322 ft). [1]
C. frerei has five digits on each of its four feet. [2] The holotype, an adult male, has a snout-to-vent length of 6.6 cm (2.6 in), plus a tail length of 8.2 cm (3.2 in). [4]
C. frerei is ovoviviparous. [2]

Eulamprus quoyii, more commonly known as the eastern water skink, eastern water-skink, or golden water skink, is a viviparous species of diurnal skink. Eulamprus quoyii belongs to the family Scincidae and is considered a common garden animal in Australia. The skink is endemic to Australia and found only along the east coast of the country. It makes its home in creekside habitats along the east coast of Australia and in urban garden areas with high amounts of moisture. The species can be identified by the twin, long yellow stripes that run along its body from the top of the eye, as well as by several more specific character derived states. The pale yellow dorsolateral stripes are most likely where its common name, the golden water skink, is derived. Like other ectotherms, the skink can often be seen basking in the sun on rocky outcroppings in order to regulate its body temperature. Its diet mainly consists of both aquatic and terrestrial insects, tadpoles and small amounts of plant matter. The skink both hunts for food and scavenges when necessary and is considered an opportunistic feeder. It is prey to larger lizards, snakes, cats and birds and so will often be seen moving quickly into hiding when other organisms are present.
