 Scincidae
Clutch size is commonly low (~ six) and is limited to one or two eggs in some species groups (e.g., Tribolonotus and Emoia, respectively).
Mittleman (1952) recognized the following lygosome genera: Ablepharus, Anotis (= Nannoscincus), Ateuchosaurus, Carlia, Cophoscincopus, (Cophoscincus (=Lipinia, Calyptotis and Cophoscincopus, Cryptoblepharus, Dasia, Emoia, Eugongylus, Eumecia, Hemiergis, Lampropholis, Leiolopisma, Leptosiaphos, Lipinia, Lygosoma, Mochlus, Nodorha (= Lerista), Norbea (=Tropidophorus), Ophioscincus, Otosaurus (=Sphenomorphus), Panaspis, Rhodona (= Lerista), Riopa, Ristella, Saiphos, Scincella, Sphenomorphus, Squamicilia (= Lygosoma), Tachygyia, Tribolonotus, Tropidophorus.

Catálogo / Natureza / Reino vegetal e animal / Animais (Animalia) / Réptiles (Reptilia) / Lizards (Lacertilia) / Skinks (Scincidae) / Ground Skink (Leiolopisma)
This file contains a systematic overview of Leiolopisma, featuring links to books, other pages on the web about Leiolopisma, pictures etc. Common names in different languages may be also available as well as a short dutch description to the taxon.
It is known only from Little and Great Barrier Islands, although only one individual has ever been found on Little Barrier Island; this animal is held in captivity on the island.

 The Mauritian Wildlife Foundation
The native reptile fauna of Mauritius consists of five species of Day Gecko of the genus Phelsuma, Night geckos of genus Nactus, the Keel Scaled or Round Island boa ( Casarea dussumieri), Telfair's skinks ( Leiolopisma telfari), Bojer's and the closely related Macchabe skinks ( Gongylomorphus bojerii and fontenayi) and Bouton skinks ( Cryptoblepharus boutonii)
The five species of reptile are now found only on offshore islands, include the Round Island boa, the Guenther’s Gecko, the Telfair skink, the Bojer skink and the Nactus night geckos.
The Mauritian Wildlife Foundation (MWF) has been working in close collaboration with the government of Mauritius to help protect the remaining reptile species from extinction.

 Chevron Skink
Chevron skink belong to the genus Oligosoma (formerly Leiolopisma) members of which are only found in New Zealand.
Less than 100 sightings have been reported since it was first described in 1906 and, because of this, very little is known about where it lives or its way of life.
The very distinctive v shaped markings on the back of the chevron skink give it its common name.

 On the Zoogeography of the Holarctic Region, by Karl Patterson Schmidt
The two areas do not have any species of amphibians or reptiles in common, though it was long a commonplace of zoogeographic compilations to state that the common ground skink of the southeastern United States ( Leiolopisma laterale) is indistinguishable from a similar form in China.
The parallel between the southward extension of the two faunae is a striking one when tabulated:
In this list Chelydra, Ophisaurus, Leiolopisma, and Elaphe are found also in southeastern North America, and with the substitution of Platysternon for Chelydra, the same genera are represented in China.

 Patterson & Daugherty-Reinstatement of Oligosoma
New Zealand skinks previously referred to the genus Leiolopisma are well differentiated morphologically and genetically from their overseas relatives and thus are generically distinct.

 Wet Tropics World Heritage Rainforest North Queensland, Australia.
This is the first record of a temperate 'relict' species among the vertebrates of the area (Covacevich, 1984).
The skinks are a particularly diverse group, represented by 54 species within the area (DASETT, 1987).
Several species are rare and very restricted, including the Bartle Frere skink Leiolopisma jigurru, which has been found in the cool montane habitat near the summit of Mt Bartle Frere.

 Changes since December 8, 1998
Pseudemoia has been described as a new genus by FUHN 1967, but not as a new species.
Thus we assume that the aforementioned names were coined by mistake and are therefore nomina nuda, i.e.
A similar mistake appeared to happen with Leiolopisma pseudemoi.
