Carlia is a genus of skinks, commonly known as four-fingered skinks or rainbow skinks, in the subfamily Eugongylinae. Before being placed in this new subfamily, Carlia was recovered in a clade with the genera Niveoscincus, Lampropholis, and others of the Eugongylus group within Lygosominae.
Ctenotus is a genus of skinks. The genus belongs to a clade in the Sphenomorphus group which contains such genera as Anomalopus and the close relatives Eulamprus and Gnypetoscincus.
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.
Eulamprus is a genus of lizards, commonly known as water skinks, in the subfamily Lygosominae of the family Scincidae. The genus is native to Australia.
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.
Pseudemoia is a genus of skinks native to southeastern Australia. For similar skinks see genera Bassiana, Lampropholis, and Niveoscincus.
Saproscincus is a genus of skinks native to Australia, sometimes referred to as shadeskinks. It contains the following species:
The common garden skink is a small species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Australia. Additional common names for L. guichenoti include grass skink, Guichenot's grass skink, pale-flecked garden sunskink, and penny lizard.
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.
Techmarscincus is a genus of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The genus is endemic to Australia, and is monotypic, containing the sole species Techmarscincus jigurru.
Concinnia is a genus of skinks in the subfamily Lygosominae.
The Quinkan ctenotus is a species of Australian skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae.
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.
Lyon's snake-eyed skink is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
Lampropholis adonis, also known commonly as the diamond shielded sunskink and Ingram's litter skink, is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
Lampropholis caligula, also known commonly as the montane sunskink or the montane sun skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to New South Wales in Australia.
The rainforest sunskink is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
The saxicoline sunskink is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
Lygisaurus tanneri, also known commonly as the Endeavour River litter-skink and Tanner's four-fingered skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
Pseudemoia rawlinsoni, also commonly known as the glossy grass skink and Rawlinson's window-eyed skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
