Eugongylus sulaensis, the Sula skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. It is found in Indonesia. [1]
Acritoscincus is a genus of Australian skinks. It belongs to the Eugongylus group; the genus Oligosoma appears to be a fairly close relative. An alternative name is Bassiana.
Eugongylus is a genus of skinks in the subfamily Eugongylinae. It was previously recognised as namesake of the Eugonglyus group of genera within Lygosominae, where it occupied a quite basal position. Members of this genus are commonly called mastiff skinks or short-legged giant skinks.
Leiolopisma is a genus of skinks. Most species occur in the region of New Caledonia-New Zealand, and they are related to other genera from that general area, such as Emoia; these and others form the Eugongylus group. One living and two extinct taxa represent a clade endemic to the Mascarenes.(Austin & Arnold 2006)
Carinascincus is a genus of skinks, commonly called snow skinks or cool-skinks and residing mainly in Tasmania or Victoria, Australia. Then recognised as the genus Niveoscincus, it was found to belong to a clade with the genera Carlia, Lampropholis and others of the Eugongylus group within Lygosominae. Cogger has rejected the use of the junior name Niveoscincus and recognizes the valid senior generic name Carinascincus for the group. For similar skinks see genera Pseudemoia, Lampropholis, and Bassiana. These skinks have adapted to the cooler weather of southern Australia and particularly Tasmania, hence the common names.
Troides hypolitus, the Rippon's birdwing, is a birdwing butterfly endemic to the Moluccas and Sulawesi. It is not significantly threatened, but it is protected.
The Sula scops owl, is a small owl in the scops-owl genus Otus found on the Sula Islands of Indonesia. Taxonomically, some groups consider it to be a distinct species, others a subspecies of the Sulawesi scops owl, and yet others a subspecies of the Moluccan scops owl.
Lygosominae is the largest subfamily of skinks in the family Scincidae. The subfamily can be divided into a number of genus groups. If the rarely used taxonomic rank of infrafamily is employed, the genus groups would be designated as such, but such a move would require a formal description according to the ICZN standards.
Aviculopecten is an extinct genus of bivalve mollusc that lived from the Early Devonian to the Late Triassic in Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America.
Pseudovigna is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It includes three species of trailing or climbing perennial herbs native to tropical Africa, in Sierra Leone and Ghana to Nigeria in West Africa, and Kenya to Mozambique and Zimbabwe in east Africa. It belongs to subfamily Faboideae.
Sinodolichos is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae. It includes two species native to southern China, Assam, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, and Borneo. It belongs to subfamily Faboideae.
Petronella Johanna Nelly de Rooij was a Dutch zoologist and herpetologist.
Geoscincus is a monotypic genus of skinks: the only accepted species is Geoscincus haraldmeieri.
The Sula cuckoo-dove, is a species of bird in the family Columbidae. It is endemic to the Sula Islands and the Banggai Archipelago in Indonesia. Prior to 2016, it was considered a subspecies of the white-faced cuckoo dove.
Doleschallia polibete, the Australian leafwing, is a butterfly in the family Nymphalidae described by Pieter Cramer in 1779.
The Taliabu fantail is a species of bird in the family Rhipiduridae. It is endemic to Taliabu in Indonesia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It was considered conspecific with the rusty-bellied fantail.
Eugongylinae is a subfamily of skinks within the family Scincidae. The genera in this subfamily were previously found to belong the Eugongylus group in the large subfamily Lygosominae.
Eugongylus albofasciolatus, the white-striped cape skink or barred shark skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. It is found in Australia (Queensland), the Solomon Islands, New Britain, New Ireland, and Micronesia.
Eugongylus mentovarius is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. It is found in Indonesia.
The bar-lipped sheen-skink or unicolor recluse skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. It is found in Australia (Queensland), the Solomon Islands, Indonesia, and Admiralty Islands.
Phoboscincus garnieri, also known commonly as Garnier's giant skink and Garnier's skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to New Caledonia.
