White-spotted Supple Skink - Lygosoma Albopunctata - Animal India
The White-spotted Supple Skink (Lygosoma albopunctata) is a species of diurnal, terrestrial, insectivorous skink found in parts of tropical Asia. It is found in mainland India except perhaps the Thar Desert and Himalayas; distribution continues to Bhutan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Indochina, Vietnam, Malaysia, and even the islands of Maldives. The tail is thick and a little longer than the head and body. It is pale brown or rufous above, and the sides are closely dotted with black. Its body is elongated with weak limbs. Each dorsal and nuchal scale has a more-or-less distinct dark brown dot, forming a longitudinal series. The sides of the neck and anterior part of the body are white-spotted. The lower surface is yellowish-white. A White-spotted Supple Skink enters a house in search of prey, and the light falling on it casts a rainbow of colors in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on August 24, 2024.
