Hi Can any one tell me what is this type of lizard called???

Question

Here is the link where you can see its Picture http://fcbs.org/articles/biota.htm look for Lagarto dourado can any one please give me a link where i can know everything about it with few pictures

Answer 1

it looks like the little skink like the ones i have in my backyard.....very common in australia!

Answer 2

some species of skink probably of the genus Eumeces my guess Eumeces fasciatus or some closely related species (they have the common name of the 5 lined skink there are a few species that have this name and they come in a verity of blacks browns and tan colours)

Answer 3

I believe it is called the Golden Lizard or golden dragon

Answer 4

It looks like a skink, but the photo only says "golden lizard."  I googled a few sites, and can't find anything close to matching it.  But a lot of juvenile skinks have stripes, and lose them entirely as adults.

You might have better luck googling it yourself. I have a virus scan running, and it's lagging me badly.

Good luck.  

Answer 5

That's a common long-tailed grass lizard!  I've got several of those in my vivarium and they are fun to watch!  

Here's a link with more information on the care and diet of these little lizards:
