These were purchased as Lygosoma sundevalli, but clearly are not. At the moment I think they might be Lygosoma bowringii, but I may be entirely wrong. Not many pictures, they promptly vanished into the substrate.

One decided to pop out again, so I offered him some crickets.

Very adorable skink ! I never seen it heard of this species. It must be wild caught, but they look like they are doing well!
