Bibron's Skink

Bibron's skink, also called Bibron's mabuya or the seashore skink, is native to India and Sri Lanka and named for the French herpetologist Gabriel Bibron. The head is somewhat flattened, the lower eyelid has a transparent disc, and the back and flank scales have five to seven sharp keels. The back is olive brown with a dark-edged light stripe along the spine and a dark stripe from the eye to the base of the tail (Wikipedia, general species account).

It is typically a coastal lowland species found below 20 m, with unconfirmed records from further inland as high as 490 m. The Reptile Database lists Odisha, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and southern Kerala.
