| | Broad-headed Skink (Eumeces laticeps) |
| | Other than the big adult males, Broad-headed Skinks are quite similar in appearance to two other skink species with overlapping ranges: Common Five-lined Skinks (Eumeces fasciatus) and Southeastern Five-lined Skinks (Eumeces inexepectatus). | | | I think the smaller skink in that picture is a younger male that the big one is trying to intimidate. |
