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.
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 Sphenomorphinae of the family Scincidae. The genus is native to Australia.
Lygisaurus is a genus of skinks, lizards in the family Scincidae.
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:
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.
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.
The red-tailed soil-crevice skink, also known commonly as Kinghorn's grassland striped skink and Kinghorn's snake-eyed skink, is a species of skink, a lizard in the subfamily Eugongylinae of the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
Carinascincus coventryi, also known commonly as Coventry's window-eyed skink and the southern forest cool-skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
The alpine cool-skink, also known commonly as the northern snow skink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Tasmania 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 coggeri, also known commonly as the northern sun skink and the rainforest sunskink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
Lampropholis couperi, commonly known as the plain-backed sunskink, is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland, 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.
Saproscincus czechurai, also known commonly as Czechura's litter-skink, Czechura's skink, and the wedge-snouted shadeskink, is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
